Almost seems like it is a vestige of the monarchy we were trying to leave behind.

>>>> I wonder why the founders neglected to put a check on the President's unbridled pardon power? Well that's obvious, back then women did not vote. No need to worry about the weaker minded sex being seduced by a pretty face. Wee willy appealed to the females. I feel your pain, your breasts, your thighs, now just come forward and yes, yes open your mouth. I guess many women just can't think when their mouth is full. Ahh time to go and dodge all the arrows. :) Tom Watson tosiwmee

>>Now I think about it, I wonder why the founders neglected to put a check on the President's unbridled pardon power? They never imagined a Prez as corrupt as Clinton. How could they? On FoxNews last night: Another scandal in the pardons. Reports indicate Clinton and Gore made a deal with Jackson for clemency for someone named Rivers who stole funds from a poverty program. Rivers had been stealing the money from the poor and giving it to Jackson's organization. She got five years. Now she gets out. Chicago is in outrage. The deal with Jackson was to deliver the black vote for Gore in exchange for the Bobby Rush pardon and the Rivers deal. I believe both were on the board of Operation Push. Maybe they had info Jackson didn't want out? Imagine, an extortionist being blackmailed.
