True enough, however that would have legacy implications for Bush. He lied to bring America to war and then totally bungled the occupation and exit, as well as keeping our troops equipped and cared for. If he pardons the guy who is now the symbol of his failure, it'll be pretty much case closed on him in the history books. That is, he could try to maintain some form of "I never lied" by standing up behind the prosecution. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Deploy Web Applications Quickly across the enterprise with ColdFusion MX7 & Flex 2.
