Chapel Hill, North Carolina – Senator John Edwards released the following statement today about President Bush commuting Scooter Libby's prison sentence.
"Only a president clinically incapable of understanding that mistakes have consequences could take the action he did today.
President Bush has just sent exactly the wrong signal to the country and the world.
In George Bush's America, it is apparently okay to misuse intelligence for political gain, mislead prosecutors and lie to the FBI.
George Bush and his cronies think they are above the law and the rest of us live with the consequences.
The cause of equal justice in America took a serious blow today."
