mre said:I'm not getting the backlash on this one. I mean, if he had pardoned Scooter Libby or the other politicians mentioned in the article I could understand that. But he hasn't (yet). Seems to me like many of these people were sentenced for crimes that GAF disagrees with, so where's the beef?
Uh, Bush already commuted Libby's sentence. Basically that's the same as pardoning him except Libby still has to do community service & pay a fine. It's the same damn thing.
