      Nope, sorry Chris.

      Libby was convicted for lying when under oath, last I knew, it was called perjury. And when dealing with a federal case, this turns into, yes, a felony. Libby should have spent some time in a cell.

      Where does this idiot get off? Scooter Libby was involved in the leak of a covert CIA agent's identity. He committed perjury and obstructed justice to save President Bush and Vice President Cheney from criminal charges. He was convicted on four counts.

      Please remember this inanity from Matthews the next time someone calls him a liberal.

      And actual liberals had better remember this the next time Matthews drops hints about running for the US Senate.

      But in the Bush administration that was what "working at the office" entailed.  So Matthews was right.
