Libby will remain on probation for two years and will still have to pay a $250,000 fine. President Bush considered the 30-month prison sentence "excessive." According to CNN's chief legal analyst, Jeffrey Toobin, "A commutation is a total right of the president and it cannot be challenged by any attorney or court."
