FF for "Wildlife violations"

Neither do I condemn thee, go and sin no more, said Jesus to a woman caught in the act (John 8).

"Neither do I condemn thee, go and sin no more"

Yet she sinned again, didn't she?

This passage doesn't mean that no one should face concequences of their actions.

I think the pardons are far from over though...

I just wonder how these drug dealers came to know W.

Its no suprise... they all let some go when leaving office.... Only question in my mind is how the righty tighty evangelicals feel about W. doing it as they screamed from the roof tops when Clinton did it...

Bill Clinton Pardons: 450+

This is not news.

Is this the complete list??

Sending another email to Bush to pardon Ramos and Campeon.

HaHa...Murphy still believes Bush cares.

A few expected environmental violations. I wonder what's in it for him with the others. herm

Sorry to disappoint you Herm.

No Marc Rich's in this mix or Weather Underground pardons here.

"Is this the complete list??"

Don't worry, Murf...Bush is far from done with pardons.

He's saving yer heroes fer last.

June 30, 07 - 2,299,116 prisoners were held in federal or state prisons or local jails. Of these I believe their are a few who should be exterminated. Many are violent and criminal and should be in prison. Most are people who should not have been incarcerated in the first place, especially drug offenders. Without the pot head Twinkies would have to rely on children for sales and the X-Box wouldn't sell at all. That cashier at the gas station you see most days? Either he's illegal or a pot head. They won't arrest the illegals but they're happy as shit to put the slam on the pot head. Besides, as long as the hippies run the gas stations, more jobs would be available for those who gave a shit.

No, just commuting the sentence of one his Administrations cronies who took the blame for outing a CIA agent. No biggie though, right?

Clinton received 2x as many requests as Saint Reagan but pardoned only 3 more people, ACLURocks. And none of those Clinton pardoned were traitors.

Leslie Owen Collier of Charleston, Mo. She was convicted for unauthorized use of a pesticide and violating the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act.

Is there no part of America that Geo Bush doesn't want to destroy?

Lots of drug convictions there.... hmmm some connection to Party Boy in Chief?

Two Muslim converts....

David Hicks, aka Muhammed Dawood had been to Guantanamo and returned to Australia and is now a free man.

John Walker Lindh, aka Hamza is asking Bush to shorten his prison sentence.

Their liberal upbringing made them directionless, restless and unrestrained and they dabbled into Islam and found themselves in deep trouble.

Yeah, too bad they weren't brainwashed early like you.

God still telling you McCain is gonna be president? Whacko...

This batch is just the beginning....he'll get writer's cramp loooooong before he's done.

I'll bet good money that Traitor Libby will be one of 'em-along with a bunch of other traitors.

"Their liberal upbringing..."

I wonder, was that was God telling him that, or is this just "the privilege of rubbing it on liberals' nose"?

I find these types of pardons obscene. What the fuck kind of retarded tradition is this? It seems to give the outgoing president one last chance to fuck the system, to give the finger to constituents.

The folks that are pardoned should be hunted down and beaten to a pulp...make a game out of it: see if you can beat all of the assholes before the next asshole pardons HIS bunch of asshole buddies.

Maybe he should have gone with the Palin model... while one criminal was being pardoned in the foreground, the rest were being fed into wood chippers?

PS: I'm a little disappointed in the length of time it took to get a Clinton/Rich deflection posted on the thread.

What about me? -Scooter

But there will be no pardon for you, criminal george bush.
Firing sqaud of US soldiers, perhaps, but no pardon.

Traitor, mass murderer, treason.

And you ARE a christian terrorist.

well so far they must not be a success because he hasnt pardoned any drug dealers or terrorists.
arent they the people who get pardons from the president

and oh yeah...maybe family members kinfolk like brothers????

And you ARE a christian terrorist.

so when was the last christian terrorist attack and I dont mean attacks from your point of view??

and if my term of 'liberal facists' is denounced as an oxymoron, then why isnt this also...

or is just another

LIBERAL HYPOCRISY HISTORICAL MOMENT.........

please excuse the plug

unlawful use of a telephone in a narcotics felony.

This one sounds real bad.

Here is some analysis for the Clinton pardons--

article.nationalreview.com

Clinton abused the office with his pardons and Holder--the new AG pick for Obama helped along the way.

Murphy will be trying to get Marc Rich's lawyer next.

The Hon. Scooter "Bear" Libby.... oops!

Not sure why this is a big deal.

Bush has pardoned less than half the number that Clinton or Reagan did. If anything, he's stingier with the pardons.

When every little thing he does is attacked by some as "bad," it takes some of the thunder away from the things he did that were actually bad (illegitamtely going into Iraq, screwing up the Katrina situation, etc.).

This is a non-issue.

The Hon. Scooter "Bear" Libby.... oops!

#30 | Posted by Corky at 2008

who was he???

oh yeah he was the guy who the prosecutor KNEW WAS INNOCENT but went ahead with the prosecution anyway............oh I rememeber.............

You must be getting a little Ahlsheimerish there, BLT. He was the guy that the prosecutor said, "threw sand in the umpire's eyes", and went to jail for protecting his Unkle Dick.

whatever
but regardless

happy thanksgiving to you and yours

I'm waiting for Bush to Pardon Bill Clinton.

That would be great PR.

Why not Ramos and Campean? Border guards who shot an illegal drug runner in the butt? Something tells me that Ramos and Campean know something and Bush wants to keep them quiet.

"Border guards who shot an illegal drug runner in the butt?"

Outside of lousy marksmanship, just why ARE these guys in jail? This one is just weird.

Pardon Hollywood and the liberal media.

"Sending another email to Bush to pardon Ramos and Campeon."

Good luck with that. Bush mostly pardons folks who have long since served their time. It's not about righting wrongs or forgiving bad acts.

His compassion is almost non-existent.

Maybe ol' shrub is mellowing out in his old age after all--with all these pardons and what not. Quite a leap from his old days as Governor George "Execution by Lethal Injection" Bush of Texass...

"Border guards who shot an illegal drug runner in the butt?"

It was the cover-up of course.

bush to pardon bill clinton hah!!!!!
