That won't happen, but I'm sure that history will not remember Bush very kindly at all.

Post #182,114 by ben_tilly 11/1/04 9:47:03 PM Reply	Not easily - he can just pardon himself Or, as his father did, pardon everyone involved in a scandal which threatens to climb to his level. Which is why my scenario had Kerry get in office before the legal stuff began climbing the foodchain...

Should the junta go peacably, I want to be the first to propose a contest: which administration felons will Bush pardon on the eve of ejection? cordially, Cthulhu for President. Why vote for a lesser evil?

This during the news, not an op-ed piece. Loved it. === Implicitly condoning stupidity since 2001.
