I heard that the Mexican government is demanding that the US put those government officials, responsible for the Fast and Furious campaign on trial and then send them to Mexico to be tried there.

That should have the Obama administration quaking in their boots.

5-4, usual suspects. We are one judge away from a Court-approved dictatorship which rubber stamps any liberal initiative.

It is scary. We have 4 who are nothing more than hard core communists that do not believe in the Constitution. All liberals are communists because communists believe that the Constitution is no longer the basis for our Republic. It is important that we label liberals for what they are.

They also neglect to say that the criminal in question had been living in the US for 36 years prior to him being arrested. He wasn’t fresh over the border.

Leal Garcia, 38, was convicted of raping a 16-year-old girl and then bludgeoning her to death with a piece of asphalt in 1994 in Texas.

Unless she was found in a swamp with duct tape attached then Leal is GUILTY. SHould have hired Jose Baez defense attorney but he was tied up lying for some young gringo murderous chick.

The president can only pardon people who have been convicted of federal crimes. This case was tried in the State of Texas.

I really don’t know but if he did there’d be an uprising in Texas and probably a few other states.

Who would even have an appetite for a ‘last meal’ right before you die? Apparently many do and chow down with gusto.

He was in the US since he was two as an illegal. He had all this time to ask for Mexican consul - his lawyers knew about that but thought they’d play the last trump card. Glad it’s too late for that scam.
