Bush has maybe grown a pair? He should have pardoned Libby.
GWB may grant a full pardon down the road, but I think this was the best decision he could make at this time.
As for Rosie, who cares what that sow has to say? I’m sure while her lips are flapping and spewing her vitriolic nonsense, her feeble brain is incapable of remembering the criminals who were “forgiven” during slick Willie’s pardon frenzy.
I love some of the comments I have heard, you would have thought Bush pardoned a murderer ( oh wait that was Clinton) All he did was say he didn’t have to go to prison. Libby is still guilty, he stills owes $250,000 fine and he still is on probation. All for supposedly outing a mid level analyst for the CIA.
You want a fun evening?
Go over to DU and read their reactions.
Have beer and popcorn on hand. It’s worth it.Meanwhile DU and DNC is completely ignoring the nearly 500 commutations and pardons that Clinton made, many for crimes like tax evasion, fraud, embezzlement, drug dealer, racketeering, etc., ... and many of the later ones were done to buy his wife a Senate seat.
According to Wikipedia, as of the today, “President George W. Bush had issued 113 presidential pardons to people who have served their entire sentence, and has commuted in addition the sentences of four people”. All 113 had done their time already, and excluding Libby, the 3 remaining commutated people had all served at least 2/3 of their jail time. Of these 117 people, Libby is the only one who got forgiveness before serving any jail time. Let’s not even touch on how the charges against him are utterly fabricated.
So CNN, MSNBC, Olberman, Kos kids, et al, are utter hypocrites. Woulda ever thunk that?
Im pissed as well but it’s dure to Bush Commuting Libby’s sentence and not commuting or pardoning Ignacio Ramos and the other border guard who were put in federal jail for 11 years for doing their jobs after a justice department setup which involved giving the drug dealer immunity to testify against them and especially after Ignacio Ramos got beat up pretty bad by some other inmates when they decided to put him in with general population..

I agree Infinity - I just keep hoping that he pardons them as he leaves office. We shall see, as I’ve not agreed with his immigration policy at all.
These people (dnc, left, libs and rosie [who is a class unto her own]) keep screeding on and on about Impeachment - which is so lame, now they are calling the Dems spineless when there has to be a crime committed (they say they need Repub cooperation to ‘uncover’ the ‘evidence’ needed for Impeachment) - isn’t that the premise of Minority Report - convict before the crime crappola? If a crime has been committed there should be evidence available. . .
I’ve always said, with all the ‘investigations’ and panels these freaks have convined and held - if a crime had been done - GWB would have been tarred, feathered, humiliated, charged, tried, Impeached, run out of town and the libs would have been high fiving themselves from now to next week in two nanoseconds of the very faintist of wiffs of criminal behavior. This is all just talking points and smoke and mirrors to divert the masses from
Pelosi putting through a bill while exempting her districts biggest corporate entity from it (isn’t that pandering to corporate ‘friends’?)
Reid and Sons land scamming the peoples of Navada and lobbying any and all for millions (lobbying scandal anyone)
Murtha and his earmarks to nowhere (read about his newest scam, fund buildings that the companies never ever use)but his pocket
McKinney - assualt and battery while playing race victim
Webb - violating the sacred liberal gun laws (wow how can he be a democrat)
Clinton - well just wait - this campaign has barely started - she will get going soon and then the rest of the dems had best watch their backs.
and of course my two favorites
Ted ‘abridgetoofar’Kennedy who never should have done anything other than time after July 20th 1969…
and
William ‘frozenassets’ Jefferson who probably won’t see the inside of a jail unless he buys into the gansta creed of no snitching. . .But the guy who gets questioned umpteen times after the Special Prosecutor knew there was no offense gets fried by a rigged DC jury, with testimony from that partisan and unbiased Chriss Matthews, and somehow the Administration is corupt. That would be rich if it weren’t destroying the country from within.
