wow..i had already forgotten how to use this silly website. i had also forgotten my password... oops.
alright so the editorial i found is nt about anything too serious because if you know me, i dont like to think about how the econmy is failing, how we have a new president who stepped in at the absolute worst possible time and is a bit of a socialist and wants to turn america into the soviet union, but whatever.
the editorial i found was on the pardon and how president Bush did not pardon anyone. the article cited president Clinton's very controversial last-minute pardons, of his deliquent brother and what-not, and set up a few good reasons for why he may have chosen to do this: 1. Bush may have been trying not to cause a stir at the end of a very rocky presidency, and just leave quietly, 2. he did not want to pull a clinton, and have just one more unpleasant addition to his resume. either way the article gave him shit for being too stingy with his mercy, and talked about how the new president should try to pardon a few more people during his time in office.
whatever.
pardons should be for people to clear records for which they have been proven innocent of, not to get crack dealers out of jail for finally getting caught. but that is a whole other tirade. the end
