In fact, I've spoken with Democrats who thought they might vote for him because of what he was like on Law & Order. Hell, I'd vote for him if he was the guy on Law & Order... but he's not. He's a conservative's conservative. Nothing redeeming about that. At least not in my mind. Oh, and, Christopher? Of course Bill Clinton pardoned criminals. If they weren't criminals, they wouldn't need a pardon.

Chrissy you ignorant history-challenged sap, they OWN THE GOVERNMENT! Along with the hundreds of globalist mega-corporations. Ordinary people have no say in Washington. You know that, I know that. “Petition” the government???

He deserves it. Before you cry about a Libbly pardon, look at the list of real criminals pardoned by Clinton. And as this is still America, I'd say that the asbestos industry has a right to petition the government; that doesn't mean the government needs to listen. What was the issue? If this is the best you can do on Thompson, you liberals are in big, big trouble. I’d vote for Thompson–or any candidate–who would pardon Libby. He deserves it.
