Open Letter To The President

President George W. Bush
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW
Washington, DC 20500

Mr. President,

I’m sure you have heard the breaking news by now that the jury has returned a verdict in the I. Lewis “Scooter” Libby Jr. trial. In case you haven’t heard the jury found him guilty on four of the five counts he was charged with and he faces more than 20 years in prison. That’s going to be pretty tough for a 56-year-old man. I’m 58 myself and I wouldn’t look forward to 20 years in the slammer.

Now I’m sure you’re already reaching for your Presidential fountain pen to sign a Presidential Pardon for “Scooter” because you know as well as I do that he just got caught up in the ridiculous Plamegate fantasy that Plame, her husband Joe Wilson and the NY TIMES concocted to embarrass you, the Vice President and your entire administration. That’s all well and good sir and I want to thank you in advance for pardoning this tired old man but before you sign that paper I want you to consider this, please ...

Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean

Yes sir, I’m sure you know who these men are too. They are border guards who were unjustly imprisoned for shooting and wounding a Mexican drug smuggler caught in the act of smuggling drugs into this country. They were convicted mainly based on testimony from the drug smuggler himself who cut a deal with the federal prosecutor, who let him go free in exchange for his testimony. This drug smuggler was later caught again trying to smuggle drugs into the country but the two men named above are in prison and one of them was badly beaten by Hispanic prisoners recently.

Now here’s the deal, sir. If you pardon “Scooter” Libby and leave these two men, who were doing their job, guarding our borders, to rot in jail and be beaten by the very illegals they have worked so hard to stop - I will not take it kindly. I’m sorry sir but that’s just the way it has to be. I know you’re compassionate and I am asking you to do the right thing by pardoning all three ... “Scooter” and the two Border Patrol agents.

If you free your friend without freeing the two border guards, I’m afraid our friendship is at an end, sir. I have stood by you and valiantly defended you for six long years, through thick and thin and all I’m asking in return is that you examine your conscience and make this right. I hate to lose a good friend but I will have to insist on your honoring my small request.

Thank you and may God bless you and your family and God bless America.

Respectfully,

Allan C. Kelly

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
