Well, if it's OK to pardon Perjurers, Criminals, and Lawbreakers that 
aided and abetted Bush & Reagan in their illegal schemes, It should then 
be OK that the others get off too, huh?  Fair is fair, now ain't it?
  But that ain't what you seem to argue for.  I hope personally, that 
Walsh hangs bush's ass on a stick.   To excuse the massive lawbreaking of 
the White House by whining about other alledged acts of criminality is 
stupid.  The Ketaing 5 is a good example.  Wrist slaps for 4 senators and 
a rebuke for the one (CRanston), leaving office anyway.  But that DOES 
NOT excuse the perjuries, criminal acts, coverups and pardons of the 
White House.  To say it does which essentially is your view is morally 
corrupt.  Now you don't want people on the net to think you are morally 
corrupt and want the White House Creeps to actually get away with their 
morally corrupt dirty tricks, do you?
