"Perjury is a serious business...and actually rarely used. It is often a threat made by prosecutors and an effective threat it can be...tends to get the story inaccuracies cleared up and prompts clearer recollections. In Libby's case we have not only perjury but obstruction of justice...more here than meets the eye."

It is much less severe than the former Liar in Chief who was attempting to obstruct justice. He lied and was as uncooperative as possible. He was disbarred. On the other hand Libby was very cooperative, which is a very good indication that he was relating the events the way he recalled them. If you can demonstrate your respect the sanctity of honesty in the courts then you can be taken seriously. Until you show that you supported the upholding of the law in the case of Clinton, you will be considered to be the partisan you appear to be.
