George W. Bush’s refusal to pardon Scooter Libby in the final days of his presidency - despite intense lobbying by Dick Cheney - offers a tantalizing clue about the state of his relationship with Cheney.

Libby, the former vice president’s chief of staff, was convicted of obstruction of justice for his role in leaking the name of CIA operative Valerie Plame. Bush had already commuted Libby’s prison sentence, but the vice president wanted a full pardon for him. The fact that he could not persuade Bush to do this most personal favor suggests the extent of Bush’s disaffection.
