They’re still convicted felons, right? So what kind of jobs can they get now?
Without a pardon both men will remain marginalized & without rights because GWB has friends in mexico...and, I'll bet his 'friends' feel all hurt because of the commutation anyway.
Commuted lets them out for time served but doesn’t remove the felony convictions.
Great news but a pardon would have been better.
Maybe the O-messiah will pardon them in an attempt to trumps Bush.
There are probably a few conservatives out there that might cut them a break.... :)
No mention that the illegal they shot was bringing illicit drugs over the border.
First time I’ve agreed with a pardon in a long time.
God Bless You, President Bush.
