observer Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 Seems the US Constitution provides powers for the President to grant pardons to criminals - EG; Tricky Dicky Nixon was pardoned by his successor But speculation has now arisen, that Bush will issue PRE-EMPTIVE pardons for all those at risk of inditement for the allegedley illegal pre-emptive invasion of Iraq. Suppose the Queen will have to pre-emptively pardon Bliar?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

observer Posted November 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2008 Problem is Mary; by even considering this option; the Administration is admitting their possible guilt; including that of torture at Guantanamo. Obama has a hell of a repair job to do, in terms of the restoration of international respect for the US; and the recent Bombay incident shows the results of the Bush./Bliar years and just how they've put US/UK citizens at greater risk.

Goonerman Posted December 23, 2008 Report Share Posted December 23, 2008 Still scratching his head as to how if Mumbai is a continuation of 9/11, Madrid, 7/7, Bali, etc., and the consequences of Bush/Blair's bloopers, how is it 9/11 pre-dates this idiocy which was in response to it?
