1. I'll see your bet
and raise it - I'll bet Bush made a pardon deal with Hillary as well. Thought he was covering his sorry criminal ass on both ends, but the emergence of Obama as Dem nominee has upset his best-laid plans. Heh heh heh heh..

2. Yep, and I think a central TP for Obama should now be
"I won't pardon."

Landslide. Easy.

9. So what's Bush's end of the bargain?
It doesn't look like he's staying away from McCain's campaign. That's what a rational candidate would want of Bush.

11. "Rational" and "Bush/McSame"
are mutually exclusive. Besides, Junior doesn't see his presence in the campaign as a bad deal for McSame. And John knows that, distasteful and disastrous though it may be, he has to dance with the one that brung him.

12. Staying out of jail? Not having to retire to the compound in S. America?
I'm sure those options appeal to his tiny little mind
