Where were all those holier than thou Democrat Senators when
President Clinton pardoned dozens of political friends and cronies
in January of 2001 including the infamous criminal financier
Marc Rich who had fled to Switzerland but had made generous contributions
to President Clinton? Scooter Libby is still saddled with years
of probation and a hefty fine. His conviction stands and only
the penalty is reduced. Clinton wiped out the convictions of
many, many perpetrators of fraud, conspiracy and other serious
crimes who were in many instances political supporters of Clinton.
Clinton issued 365 Pardons during his two terms along with 65
sentence commutations. Bush has issued a grand total of 58 pardons
in his almost completed two terms. Clinton granted more than
five times as many pardons than has President Bush. Obama, Hillary
and Schumer, should be ashamed of their attack dog political
accusations!
