I wonder what the Gov’s motivation was for his actions, pardoning criminals? Any logical answers???

Haley never should have composed this list while he was blitzed. This time, thank the Lord a judge is taking a rational look at this fiasco.

Is Barbour INSANE??!!!!!

The Illinois governor rolled back the death penalty when he knew he was going to jail didn't he? Could there be something coming down the road for this guy?

4 Murderers being sprung. If there’s ONE REASON to have an EFFECTIVE death penalty is to make that number as low as possible...maybe three, maybe two, maybe one, maybe all would have been executed before a psycho-governor (or judge, for that matter) could release them into society to do more carnage.

"Barbour said Wednesday that some people misunderstand the clemency process and believe that most of the individuals were still jailed."

And there you have it; we 'little people' a.k.a. rubes "just don't understand the "process". I mean really, what's a little murder anyway? Especially when said murderer became a trustee and actually worked at the Governor's mansion. We just don't get it ... of course if it had been Barbour's family members brutally snuffed out, his opinion might be a bit different. But, well, with a politician, you can never really tell about such things as they would sell their own mothers to get elected.

All makes perfect sense to me...

"We have ordered that they report to the Department of Corrections' said Mississippi Attorney General Jim Hood."

Yeah, like that's going to happen.

Somewhere, Ray Blanton (former Governor of Tennessee) is laughing his ass off.

[Lancey Howard]

Whew.. How does a guy like Haley Barbour turn out to be a complete scumbag?

[SaraJohnson]

Corruption is ugly.

Mississippi judge blocks release of pardoned prisoners.

Finally the adults have taken over!

[dupree]

It doesn’t sound fair that a few select prisoners are chosen to work at the mansion with promises of pardons. Shouldn’t every prisoner be given that opportunity? Wouldn’t every prisoner have angel behavior if he knew freedom was just around the corner?

Good thing the Judge has a conscience.
