President Barack Obama did not intervene in the case during his eight years in office because the Justice Department recommended denying Johnson's request for a commutation. Three requests were made -- one during his first term, two during his second -- but they never reached Obama's desk because he followed Justice Department recommendations, a senior Obama administration official told CNN.Riiiight. Mr Black Defender. Mr On Top Of Things. Mr Brilliant.
Obama NEVER thought to ask his Justice Department for a list of people that were imprisoned on first time drug offenses. Didn't he speak of this often? Like ALL of the Democrats?
Democrats don't care about results; they only care about the soundbite.
Oh, and let me comment further. The requests for this lady's commutation never reached Obama's desk but the request for clemency for hardcore drug dealers sure as hell did and he LET THEM GO!!!!!
Democrats and Obama are lying sacks.
