“They said this isnt a pardon.. but rather commuting the sentence”
If Fred Thompson wins, he’ll give him a full pardon.
No it came from a Republican that is about to become an independent .
You WISH it was from the DU, the truth is there are still some Republicans that believe in the constitution and the rule of law, I am not a Bush groupie or a republican groupie, I am a citizen that wants good conservative government, neither of which Bush has delivered
Got that spot on - their actions have nothing, zero, zot to do with right, justice or human decency. They are MAD for power - TOTAL power - go ahead, folks, let the libRats back in. We will ALL be subject to witch hunts without defense
Nice shirt - and it ‘fits’!
Just got out of the shower and decontamination room. I donned my HASMAT suit, but it didn’t keep all of the filth and vexatious bile off. Those folks at DU are a hateful bunch. There is not a sentence of moderation or information....just hate.
I read the thread.
Wonderful news, you can bet the dems will be foaming at the mouth over this!
Would the President now direct his attention to the pardons(not commutations) of certain border agents?
He was sentenced according to the FEDERAL SENTENCING GUIDELINES by a Republican judge
He sure did look awfully happy if it is supposed to be a bad deal! Could you explain why you think it is a bad deal?
The appeal may well be successful. The appellate court now has the President decreeing that this federal judge was seriously out of line. The trial court’s pronouncements were often political, and the entire saga is unprecedented.
Sometimes a reviewing court just says “bullshit”-and then writes an opinion to wrap that conclusion in eloquence.
NO - it was what Libby wanted ATT so's he would have a chance to appeal and clear his name altogether = A full pardon now would mean no right to appeal - and branded guilty forever...
Well maybe Bush will full pardon at the end of his term if the appeals court upholds the rest of it, the decent thing to do.

The media and the Dems are going nuts over this....and FRED being a Scooter supporter will suffer the wrath of many once he declares for POTUS.
It doesn’t look good, but perhaps this will die down as time passes.
The Appeals Court forced his hand today and he did the right thing.
Nobody need be a Bush fan, just not freakin’ deranged as basically your own words showed. I call em each as I see em. Whether it be in regard to his policies or your derangement. And I’ve supported and do support Duncan Hunter along with the very earliest ones to do so. Way before he even announced.
Duncan Hunter is a good example for you. He disagrees with the President but is fair and respectful and measured. Where he can he gives the President kudos and in no way blames him for everything because he’s got all his marbles and knows better. I’m REAL SAFE with DH as a role model for disagreeing but remaining fair, just and balanced.
So your words role off me. Like I said look in your own mirror.
Bush didn’t cause me or DH to go over the edge and he didn’t cause you to, either.
i’m just a glutton for punishment...hahahaha
it is nice to see some saner heads taking a stand against the BBS/IDS crowd.
You should go over to her site and read what she and her troopers have to say about this! Its humorous. I will admit, EW keeps clean commentary, I didn’t see any of the kind of language I read about that DUers are posting. (At least there were no four letter words last time I checked over there). But they are unhappy campers. HA.
I can’t see why I should oppose the President for this. Libby still gets a $250,000.00 fine and 2 years probation. This is not a pardoning like Ford gave to Nixon in the 70s.
And for these wild Dems seeing red over this, where was your indignation with Bill Clinton in the 1990s? Perjury is a federal crime that deserves punishment, no matter what the motivation behind it is, yet these same Dems refused to allow him to be punished in 1999. So their hypocrisy is just ludicrous.
