Online Poll: What Do You Think of Libby Sentence?

I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby was sentenced to 2 1/2 years in prison Tuesday for lying and obstructing the CIA leak investigation. What do you think of his sentence? -- Idaho Statesman.

*Too harsh
*Just right
*Too lenient
*No opinion

DFO: Too harsh in terms of the sentence former Clinton security adviser Sandy Berger received for destroying classified info from the National Archives. Berger was hit with a $50,000 fine. A good argument can be made that Libby's sentence is appropriate. And Berger deserved prison time.
