[ * Toussie, one of 19 people Bush pardoned on Tuesday, pleaded guilty * in 2003 to defrauding the federal government and Suffolk County in mortgage and price-inflation schemes. He and his father Robert, among the largest landowners on Long Island, are accused of selling shoddy homes at inflated prices, largely to minorities, in an ongoing class-action lawsuit involving 400 families. Yesterday, the White House said the President is revoking Toussie's pardon, at least in part because of news reports revealing that his father gave over $28,000 to the Republican National Committee just months before the pardon petition. The White House counsel recommended the pardon to the President. ] * Will they be giving back the $28,000? * And HOW can they UNDO a pardon? According to Bush/Cheney the Executive has absolute power. * If he pardon's SureShot, himself, Rumsfeld & crew can Obama now undo * it? Absolute power would indeed grant that power to Obama. -- Cliff Maybe their check bounced??? Ha! dennis in nca I think Cliff hit the nail on the head. *Bush, the stupid ****, gave up his absolute right to a self-imposed pardon with this cover up. *Problem is that Osama won't use the power. He probably just hadn't signed or filed the paperwork yet. *While a decision to pardon is reversible, an actual pardon is not. *Otherwise it would merely be a parole.
