I hope Bush does the right thing and, for once, says "No!" to the open borders crowd.
"he would "take a sober look at the case" as it works its way through the appeals system. "
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Didn't Ford pardon Nixon before he was even INDICTED for anything by the House???
Why can't Bush just pardon these two now?
I don't get it.
"take a sober look at the case"
An unfortunate choice of words.
Mr President Don't think about it; DO IT! Pardon them Now and the BP agent that just shot the one in Arizona too!
Because those two covered up their actions after shooting an unarmed guy running away that they did not know was a drug dealer.
I bet you he won't pardon them. He doesn't want to take the chance off making the Latino community angry at him.
Well, I hope he does pardon them.
Why would that be the case? The two Border Patrol agents in question are Latino themselves.
He should be doing a lot more than "considering" a pardon.
I agree, he won't want to offend the Illegal Criminal lobby that apparently has him in their pocket.
I think Bush may give a pardon because this railroading of the Border Agents has become a national scandal and many Republican congressmnen have taken Bush to the woodshed. Just last week on Lou Dobbs' program Bilbrey, Rohrbacher, and Hunter fiercely denounced Bush.
I think they told him that if he expects to get ANY cooperation from Republicans to get what little is left of his agenda passed - he better wise up.
Please President Bush - you're for the Good Guys! Please do the right thing here. Vote American on this one!!!

BTTT!!!
The world has been turned upside down. The foreign drug smuggler is sought out and handed immunity and the cops who stopped him are in jail. Something stinks here. Bush needs to pardon these two men and replace the prosecutor with someone who knows which side he's on.
WHAT IS HE WAITING FOR???
This should have already happened. About a MONTH ago.
There is always more to the story. A rush to judgement without all the facts wouldn't be prudent.(sorry) I tend to side with the officers myself, but if they indeed are guilty, shouldn't they be required to pay for their own crimes?
He better. His record on the border has been horrible and will destroy the rest of his legacy. Bush will be looked back on as a guy who could have stopped the Hispanicazition of America but didn't. A lot of opportunities have been missed and it may be too late.
Pinging to slap the white house tomorrow. Call like your life depends on it, actually it does.
