From the Obviously-in-line-already Department.


National Guard Lt. Anthony Circosta poses in his backyard in Agawam, Mass., on June 9, 2007.
At left, his wife Danielle and daughter Kylie, 2, talk near the swing set. Circosta,
a decorated Iraq War veteran, seemed like an ideal candidate for a pardon from
then-Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney for the 29-year-old's boyhood conviction
for a BB gun shooting. Romney denied the pardon, twice, despite the recommendation of the governor's council.

I remember that soldier. I had forgotten about him. He wanted the pardon so he could become a State Patrolman or something? On the thread about him some of the Romney supporters were going on about that like the bb gun was some serious stuff lol. He could have put someones eye out!
