Nixon and Ford is in no way analogous....and you were wrong (again) about Libby....he was not pardoned.....

From Wikipedia:

On June 5, 2007, the presiding trial judge, Reggie B. Walton, sentenced Libby to 30 months in federal prison, a fine of $250,000, and two years of supervised release, including 400 hours of community service, [13] [14] [15] [16] and then ordered Libby to begin his sentence immediately.
