Who got it in the ass? If you're talking about Libby, going to trial was nothing, just a blip on the radar screen of his life. He proved his loyalty and got the gold star. He's the golden boy of the power and corrupt elite that run the United States.

“My estimate at the time—and it was wrong, it turned out to be incorrect—was the fact that we were in the midst of holding three elections in Iraq, elected an interim government, then ratifying a constitution, then electing a permanent government, that they had had significant success, we’d rounded up Saddam Hussein.
