Yeah, we can’t imagine what it would be like for the lefties to go wild. He should have done it sooner, and it should have been a complete pardon.

I keep staring at this thread wondering if it’s satire. But I think it’s really real. Never thought we’d see the day. THANK YOU PRESIDENT BUSH!

Thank you, President Bush, your last great act.

Yes a pardon would have been better, but who cares, they will be back with their families very soon. And I have a feeling that there are a lot of TRUE AMERICANS that would consider it a privilege to have them on their payroll.
