“Can Bush pardon himself? Can he pardon his administration, then resign and have Chenny pardon him?”
He can only pardon convictions. He cant grant himself or anyone else immunity from future prosecution.
So the answer is no, all around.
He can pardon Scooter, though.

Shut up, Bush.
Can I help you pack George?
Good gravy, and I voted for this doofus twice...sorry everyone...magritte
That would be chump 'change'.
Remember when he said “Let be the first to proudly say ‘Madam Speaker’”? Now he can be the first to say ‘Allah Akbar’ or some crap.
White guy / Decendant of Political Family / Never made a dime on his own / Allowed Rampant Spending / Not a conservative / A Fraud
The question is: Will we?
Most likely, W will end up in jail
On the campaign trail, Biden said they would put Bush on trial.
Sadly, you may be right Memphis Moe...
Ford pardoned Nixon “for any crimes he may have committed” and this caused his downfall. Lots of dems wanted to prosecute Nixon. Bush won’t have the balls to do the same.
That was my thought. Don’t let the door hit yur ass on the way out George.
I’m not blaming anything on Clinton.
BS, you clearly are attempting to put Bush up on some kind of pedestal at Clinton's expense.
No sale...Stop the BS.
There is *nothing* honorable about destroying your own party, and leaving the entire country in a ditch at the hands of very questionable leadership.
This is NOT honor.
That’s why he’s got his ‘approval’ ratings in the gutter!
We (including NOBAMA) can all thank Bush for setting us up for this outcome:
- Utter mismanagement of the war/insurgency (allowing it to develop and fester for several years)
- Costing the Republicans the Congress in 2006 as a result of above.
- Not defending himself/his administration for the last 6 years of incessant harping and carping by the RATS.
- Allowing his approval ratings to fall below the Equator Line - giving NOBAMA a simple ‘fig leaf’ of “Change” to campaign and win an election.
Let us not forget the failure of Pres. GWB to use the veto on tremendous piggy spending over the last 8 years....his lasting legacy will be? How about a pardan of the Border Agents & Libby!
Look, I disagree with Bush’s drunken sailor spending and other issues like Miers and Immigration, but Bush has not broken laws, lied under oath, or used the white house staff as his call girls. We haven’t had him sued for Sexual Harassment. He hasn’t been connected with mysterious deaths of his associates. He hasn’t requested FBI files on political enemies.
Bush hasn’t implemented the policies that many of us were looking for when we voted for him, however, he has conducted himself with Honor and Dignity. Any suggestion otherwise is foolish.
The Republican Party has destroyed itself. Congress fell in love with the money and corrupted itself. Bush did nothing to stop their free spending ways as he didn’t want the demagogue attacks about Mediscare and SS. In fact, I would assert that if Newt Gingrich hadn’t been found out banging his secretary, we might still be in power.
Hastert was a loser, Boner is a loser. We are now going to get leaders like Eric Cantor to put conservatism at the top of the platfrom
My only point is about CONDUCT in OFFICE, not about political outcomes.
He hasn't? Tell me slick, is it not the responsibility and sworn duty of the President of the United States to secure and protect our sovereign borders?
Yes or no?
The fact is we all know Bush and his administration have done just the opposite and have aided and abetted, and publicly encouraged millions to enter the country illegally. Where you been?
Bush has made American citizenship all but pointless. Been around any Major American cities lately?
Stop trying to sugar coat this Bush disaster. No one buys this crap.
NO SALE
You best take this crap to one of those threads where they sit around and worship Bush all day, where accurate, unpleasant comments are forbidden.
