I’m shocked and thankful. I thought that cold hearted SOB was going to leave them in prison.
It’s a sad state of affairs when American citizens must beg for mercy from a President with the powers of a King.
Not really. If Bush didn't have the power of pardon they'd spend the rest of their natural lives in prison.

I am happy for the two agents and their families but I just don’t know what to make of your statement.
Can you not be thankful and admit that President Bush kept his word?
GWB is anything but coldhearted!
In fact, his main malfunction is he tries TOO hard to appease and pander to the Democrat lib Bush-haters.... to no avail after eight long years.
Bush "feels" for border jumping illegals, and thus sides with Amnesty.
Bush "feels" for seniors who complain about high prescriptions, and thus spends his limited political capital on free elderly drugs (well, almost free)
Bush "feels" for African AIDS victims, and thus spent $15 billion to Africa.... not that it is a terrible thing to do.
If President Bush had been more hardened in his so-called conservative principals, his Presidency would have had much more succcess.
