-   -   Do you believe Clinton's Pardons? (https://chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=15280)

Slick Willy worked until the very end to screw this country. Among the scumbags he pardoned was former Illinois Congressman Mel Reynolds, who was convicted of having sex with a minor campaign worker (he's married, of course), bribery and misappropriation of funds. Reynolds is currently in jail, but not for long.

Jesse Jackson, through an attorney, issued a statement saying how happy he was that "Brother Reynolds" will be set free. After that, the news quoted some Chicago columnist, whose name I unfortunately didn't catch, who suggested that Reynolds should find a way to become vital in community again, by becoming a TEACHER. I really liked that - putting some middle-aged felon with a history of screwing teenage girls in the classroom.

Living in Chicago is enough to make any person with a shred of character and decency physically ill. Clinton really should move here now - he'd fit right in.

Fraz - He pardoned someone who was arrested for that? I wonder if he would have felt the same way if it was his daughter...

Morph, it would probably depend on the amount of the pay-off. Disgusting.

I'm outta here. Talk to you guys later.

Tim - Dont forget that he also pardoned his brother for drug crimes... I am still having trouble deciding which one is more like Jimmy and which one is more like Billy Carter.

Dont forget his pardoning of 1,000,000 illegal aliens..

Nothing ex-Pres Clinton does surprises me anymore...

How about the pardon of Leonard Peltier, convicted of killing 2 FBI Agents.

I don't mean to bash him since he is leaving, but the pardons were a disgrace to the country. Clinton did some serious damage on the way out.

This is what our president of a few days back thought about the law...

And his fellow democrats are worried about Ashcroft being able to uphold the law?

Geez...

Baby Lee 01-22-2001 09:11 AM

47mack - foxnews.com lists Peltier among those NOT pardoned. If you've heard different, let us know the source.

Also, scuttlebutt is that Web Hubbell may be sufficiently disillusioned by Clinton's failure to pardon him that his jaw is slowly loosening. Again, that's suttlebutt, not informed sources. We'll see.

He did NOT pardon Peltier. Settle down...

Clint in Wichita 01-22-2001 11:59 AM

How long are you guys going to continue to LOOK for things to whine about?

I'm sure "Superboy" will make everything all better.




BTW, I'm now waiting for my tax cut.

ROYC75 01-22-2001 12:15 PM

As long as It Takes for everyone to see that Willie was a thugs best freind!

Clint in Wichita 01-22-2001 12:31 PM

I'll agree that Clinton was a "thug's best friend" if you'll agree that Dubya is more brain-dead than any President this country has ever seen.

morphius 01-22-2001 12:36 PM

Clint - Your right, from now on we should ignore anything stupid or immoral a President does. I mean as President they are beyond reproach.

Morphius
Doubts Clint can follow his own advise.
