Lacayo's article nailed it: Bush's reputation is so low that he has "nothin' left to lose" in letting Libby off the hook.

...while killing vampires with a bow and arrow. It is just as holy a role only more aggressive. Professional wrestler Triple-H, in the role of a vampire thug, seems dumb, but conveys no actorly mannerisms. He is either really dumb or really good at acting really dumb. Kris Kristofferson is good at affecting Jesus with a laconic absence of humor, which I suppose is a skill in itself, like Al Jolson’s dancing in blackface. James Claveziel, take note: you should pray to have Kristofferson’s screen presence when you reach his age. And then...
