I heard a good one the other day from the most narrow-minded incredibly biased Republican I have ever met.

"Abuse of power as in the sham investigations for Libby and Clinton, or President Bush commuting the sentence of a man guilty of nothing more than memory loss?"

Yeah, sure, and it was memory loss. Now if you excuse me, I have to go hang out with Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy.

>This is clearly the Republican talking point. Not much choice, I suppose. You notice there aren't many defending the commutation of Libby's sentence. The best they can come up with is to point fingers at the Clintons.

>>I agree. Bush should have waited until the final day of his presidency and pardoned 140 criminals like President Clinton did.

>>>Great post. And good for you for not letting Charles lead you off the topic of THIS trial and THIS pardon. Just because something worse might have happened doesn't make it all right.

>>>Bush doesn't have to run again but I bet there are some Republican candidates who are peeved at him for handing this issue to the Democrats.
