Hillary! and The Clinton Pardons

The Low Wattage Of The Liberal Mindset*

“This commutation sends the clear signal that in this administration, cronyism and ideology trump competence and justice.” – Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, D-N.Y.

Hillary is complaining of a culture of corruption in the Bush Administration.

Here are some reminders of the most corrupt administration ever.

The years were 1994-2001 when Bill Clinton was in office with his co-President: Hillary Rodham (Clinton). The bribes for pardons with sales agents (the Rodham Brothers) representing the most ethical President and his spouse Hillary.

The Mark Rich Pardon:

On Jan. 20 (2001), President Clinton gave Rich a chance for a third “do-over.” Clinton wiped all the criminal charges off of Rich’s record with a presidential pardon on his last day in power. The Rich pardon has received special attention because Denise Rich raised and donated more than $1 million to the Democratic Party in recent years and also provided the Clintons directly with a $10,000 contribution to their legal defense fund and $7,300 worth of furniture.

The FALN Pardons:

On August 11, 1999 Clinton commuted the sentences of 16 members of FALN, a violent Puerto Rican nationalist group that set off 120 bombs in the United States mostly in New York City and Chicago, convicted for conspiracies to commit robbery, bomb-making, and sedition, as well as for firearms and explosives violations.[3] None of the 16 were convicted of bombings or any crime which injured another person, though they were sentenced with terms ranging from 35 to 105 years in prison for the conviction of conspiracy and sedition. Congress, however, recognizes that the FALN is responsible for “6 deaths and the permanent maiming of dozens of others, including law enforcement officials.” All of the 16 had served 19 years or longer in prison, which was a longer sentence than such crimes typically received, according to the White House.[citation needed] Clinton offered clemency, on condition that the prisoners renounce violence, at the appeal of 10 Nobel Peace Prize laureates, President Jimmy Carter, the cardinal of New York, and the archbishop of Puerto Rico. The commutation was opposed by U.S. Attorney’s Office, the FBI, and the Federal Bureau of Prisons and criticized by many including former victims of FALN terrorist activities, the Fraternal Order of Police,[4] members of Congress, and Hillary Clinton in her campaign for Senator.[5] Congress condemned the action, with a vote of 95-2 in the Senate and 311-41 in the House.[6][7] The U.S. House Committee on Government Reform held an investigation on the matter, but the Justice Department prevented FBI officials from testifying.[8] President Clinton cited executive privilege for his refusal to turn over some documents to Congress related to his decision to offer clemency to members of the FALN terrorist group.

These are just two examples from a virtual plethora of Clinton’s questionable if not criminal use of Presidential pardons. Scooter Libby’s righteous commutation by President Bush will continue to enrage the liberals/democrats. Tough… get over it.

*By The Way…

Cindy’s Back after her abbreviated retirement from Moonbattery:

I’m not backing off. I tried to remove myself from the
political realm of the US, what BushCo is turning into
an Evil Empire, but the blatant audacity of George
commuting Scooter’s sentence (he’s not ruling out a
full pardon —and you know he will) has dragged me
kicking and screaming back in. I can’t sit back and
let this BushCo drag our country further down into the
murky quagmire of Fascism and violence, taking the
rest of the world with them!

Ya knew she had to make a reappearance at some juncture. Scooter’s commutation was that opportunity.
