This is part way but doesn’t finish the job.

Scooter Libby is still limping, too.

Sentence was commuted at the border guards request. They can now appeal the convictions. A pardon forgives a crime.

They should have been pardoned.

“I thought that GWB was too close to Sutton to take this action.”

I read that Sutton requested the commutation.

I respectfully disagree. They did try to conceal evidence. Let the conviction stand, but it's well past time they should walk free for that crime.

Agreed.

Finaly.

President Bush sees the light. For today, we have our President back.

Playing both sides.
Bush didn't pardon the men for their crimes, but decided instead to commute their prison sentences because he believed they were excessive and that they had already suffered the loss of their jobs, freedom and reputations, a senior administration official said.

The action by the president, who believes the border agents received fair trials and that the verdicts were just, does not diminish the seriousness of their crimes, the official said.

Finally, something AMERICANS can smile about during this ‘RAT era of misery, doom and gloom. Probably the last time we’ll be smiling for at least four years.

I'm going to be smiling a lot.

Every time a liberal get exactly what they've been begging for, and finds out the real world consequences, I'll smile, if not laugh aloud...

The first thing I did was cry tears of joy.

Thank God President Bush FINALLY got them out of jail.

Now, they can go for a full Pardon.
