what it is. Asking for a pardon, then, is simply asking for a get out of jail card.

(8,203 posts)10. My concern..fear..is that all got a pardon..and they walk away...
What can be done??? I am not a person who is pessimistic..are our LAWS so weak ?? Is the pardon power absolute??
I still see and hear Jared with his smirk..I was too busy working pardons to pay attention to cippolonis whining...I cannot fathom them all walking....

Not crimes committed from that time forward? Im guessing these guys continued to perjure themselves.
