Surely
Now that Libby has been sentenced, Bush can comment on the whole ‘CIA leak’ thing, as well as let us know if he intends to pardon Libby. Right?
MS. PERINO: As I said, we're not going to comment, the criminal justice system is still continuing and the judge has set up a process -- I think it's to be announced, the exact schedule later. It would start next week, when they start pursuing those appeals.
Q When do you consider the process over?
MS. PERINO: Well, I think when those appeals are exhausted is when it would be over.
Q And if Scooter Libby says, "I'm not going to appeal"?
MS. PERINO: Well, then we'd have to take that into consideration and I'd have to come back with more reaction.
I’m guessing the ‘more reaction’ would be along the lines of: "Mr. Libby is still serving his sentence. We have a policy not to comment on on-going incarcerations..."
