#6, Peter C, Bush has until 11:59am EST. However, I believe that sometime last night a Bush admin official announced that Bush would have no more pardons to announce.

OT, I’m watching Darth Cheney being wheeled in in his wheelchair at the inauguration. I agree with whichever poster said last night that Cheney probably wanted to be in a wheelchair so that he wouldn’t have to stand up for any standing ovations for President Obama. It seems like the sort of petty thing he’d do.

Maybe now all of the whiney babies on the left will stop hyperventillating over every single Obama admin choice. If the person is not “progressive” enough then I see “this is not the change I voted for!” If they are from the Clinton administration “this is not the change I voted for!” Good grief. Obama and the U.S. govt will be COMPLETELY different than the past 8 years. RELAX!

The contrast between this inauguration and Shrubs rainy, protest filled, nearly empty streets 4 years ago says more than any words possibly could.

Welcome back, United States of America.

“… OLC’s proper role, instead, is to inform the Executive Branch as to what conduct is lawful.”

finally…

but, on the other hand, if one has to ask “is it legal?”, it probably ISN’T.

remember kindergarten? … same thing…

Have all Bush’s pardons been announced now? What is the deadline? Is it possible that they will show up later?

I want to know who could be prosecuted. When will we know?

The Congress, the DoJ, and the people can come together and begin proceedings against Bush&Co while Obama remains above the fray. Lederman will be part of the team, when everything undeniable is on display before all of America, and Obama gives the go-ahead to the execution of justice, according to the will of the people.

Ahhhh. At last someone with cajones.

That ought to cause some concern for the outgoing Bush crooks.
