"Question: Can President Bush write and sign an Executive Order keeping her alive?"


I was wondering about that myself, after all the President and even the governor has the power to commute death sentences of criminals and pardon them, why can't they pardon an innocent woman and save her from death?

My thoughts exactly. I just don't know enough about Executive Orders to know why it isn't being used at this point, or if it can be used for this purpose.
