The White House has left unexplained the president's decisions to grant pardons to drug dealers, carjackers, thieves and a moonshiner, but deny the same mercy to two former U.S. Border Patrol agents each serving more than a decade in prison for shooting at a fleeing drug smuggler.
The issue arose during a news briefing at the White House, held by Dana Perino, the president's spokeswoman.
"Both Republicans and the Democrat Chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Subcommittee have now deplored the president's pardoning of drug dealers and carjackers while refusing to pardon two U.S. Border Patrol agents who shot a Mexican drug smuggler who disobeyed their order to stop " asked WND's correspondent at the White House, Les Kinsolving.
"I answered this question," said Perino.
"And my question," said Kinsolving.
"I answered this question," said Perino.
"Wait a minute, I haven't asked it," Kinsolving said.
"I'm sure it's the same one," Perino responded.
"Would the White House like to respond to Chairman Delahunt, as well as Congressmen Hunter and Rohrabacher, or will you stiff-arm them with a 'no comment'?" he asked.
"What I'll do is refer you to the briefing on Monday when Kathleen asked the same question," Perino said.
"Not exactly the same," Kinsolving said.
Perino's response earlier to questions about pardons, referencing another case, was, "We don't speculate on any possible pardons."

Maybe he’s trying to be
CONSISTENT-ly
?traitorous?
?corrupt?
?obtuse?
?mystifying?
?charitable to evil, murderous society destroying thugs?
. . .
Sheesh.
Horrible, imho.
What I am saying is, since Hunter (at least in my estimation) doesn’t really have the ability to cut through the MSMs filters, his ability to communicate his true message is severely compromised, so he is not my first choice. Of course he is still head and shoulders above the inept tounge-tied Bush, but that is no benchmark worthy of note. That having been said, I would wholeheartedly support Hunter if he can “put himself on the map” by refining his message and delivery, but I am not holding my breath.
Hunter to me is Regan but without Regan’s incredible communication skills. If he had the communication skills to deliver an effective message I would be out there on the pavement doing my utmost to get him elected.
I think it smells of extortion from Mehico on Bush. Those two BPA’s need to be pardoned and Johnny Sutton charged with malicious prosecution.
My other opinion is someone is putting mind altering drugs in (Bush’s) food and or drinks.
Bush is too, busy kissing illegal criminal aliens asses and muslim terrorists to see the forest before the trees.

I haven’t seen the list with the details of each pardon granted.
I wonder how many on the list have served their time and no longer incarcerated? In other words they did their time and this just clears the record?
