Defending Bush, Romney said at a campaign stop that "the president looked very carefully at the setting" before deciding to commute the 2 1/2-year sentence of Libby, the former chief of staff to Vice President Dick Cheney, who was convicted in the CIA leak case.
The prosecutor in the case "went after somebody even when he knew no crime had been committed," Romney said. "Given that fact, isn't it reasonable for a commutation of a portion of the sentence to be made?"
It seems that Mitt also completely misrepresents the case against Libby to make some ridiculous political points with the far right. Libby was sentenced to lying under oath and interfering with an investigation, not with leaking Valerie Plame's name.
So it seems that Mormons are not above hypocrisy any more then those that hide behind other religious accoutrement's.
So for those keeeping track that is Duncan Hunter, Mitt Romney, and I am sure that ex-Nixon mole Fred Thompson will soon follow suit since he has been calling for a pardon all along.
