Obama Should Pardon Delay...

[Powdered Toast Man]

In exchange for a single payer system... and everything else we had to compromise on. Of course they have pass everything first before Delay gets his pardon.

1. It's a state crime, not a federal crime. President cannot pardon, even if he wants to

2. Rick Perry will probably pardon him then.

And be even more popular in Texas for doing so.

:grr:

10. I would see that as highly likely. Especially if Ricky wants to shore

up the conservative base for a run in 2012 for President.

13. Too early to need a pardon, Delay is filing for a higher court review

3. Your sarcasm meter is broken

Obviously the OP wasn't being serious. I say "obviously" but I guess it flew by you.

[Powdered Toast Man]

12. lol, thanks.

Guess I needed the :sarcasm: thingy

4. So he should sell a pardon for political favors...

That would be an impeachable offense.

[Powdered Toast Man]

11. Didn't you get the memo?

There is no such thing as an impeachable offense anymore.

5. Ahh hell, appoint DeLay as Veep if it'll get us a single payer HCS nt

6. He probably will - but in exchange for nothing.

7. ...and then send him to Gitmo as an enemy combatant.*

8. Sounds a fair exchange his agenda passed then he'll pardon Delay fair dinkum....

Plus don't forget the debt cap rise too, thank you GOP.

9. Now if Delay goes to jail, will that mean he will be on a government run health

care plan?

The irony!

14. We can't suddenly switch to a single payer system. It has to be done in stages. nt
