Apparently Bush is refusing to rule out a full pardon before the end of his term:

And was it a severe or unusual punishment?
I guess only if you have powerful friends that you are taking the fall for is it a severe punishment? |
I apologise. He was convicted of
one count of obstruction, two counts of perjury and one count of lying to the FBI about how he learned Plame’s identity and whom he told. Prosecutors said he learned about Plame from Cheney and others, discussed her name with reporters and, fearing prosecution, made up a story to make those discussions seem innocuous.
But how exactly did this impact the whole entire nation of the United States of America?
