Bush commutes sentence for Libby

Newsday

President Bush commuted the sentence of former aide I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby Monday, sparing him from a 2 1/2-year prison term in the CIA leak case.

Bush left intact a $250,000 fine and two years probation for Libby, according to a senior White House official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the decision had not been announced.

Even though I would have given Libby a full pardon, I'm glad he doesn't have to serve any jail time.
