Why does everyone always bring this up? Research some of Bush 41's pardons (including a large-scale drug dealer and a killer terrorist) first. Questionable pardons appear to be common practice.
Anyway, however much I dislike Clinton, can he be any worse than Kofi? At least the SG would be American, but that's probably why it wouldn't fly.
The egregious scandalous pardons at the end of Clinton's second term were unethical, terrible, rotten!! That is not common practice!
Sorry, I must say that was a bad post, antiRepublicrat.
