McCain's involvement was peripheral. Yes, of the three candidates still effectively standing John McCain appears to be the most presidential at this time. Doesn't make him the most presidential person in the country, merely the most presidential of the three. Hillary is damaging herself, badly, with this week's attacks on Obama. She can be such a jerk. The attacks of course say much more about what sort of person she is than what sort of person Obama might be. She represents the same old corrupted, sold out, traditional political game playing we have endured for the last couple of decades. No change of course with her at all, just a change in party and gender. Obama is mesmerizing his audiences with rhetoric. He's one of the best orators to trek down the presidential trail in quite a while, IMO surpassing even BJ Clinton in this respect. But once he gets our attention with a brilliantly orchestrated fanfare, what's next? Oh, look- yet another fanfare! Obama needs to find the courage to take a stand on more issues. It's hard to pick an outstanding candidate from among the three- but anything will be better than what we have endured for the last 7 years. About 70% of the country is eager to see GWB retire to Crawford. Obama and McCain are two of the best choices we have had in a long time. Hillary is be a disaster. I can't believe no one in the press has made an issue of Bill selling pardons. I can just imagine how many pardons Hillary could sell with Bill selling them over the internet. LOL have you forgotten about the pardon king, GH Bush? He pardoned more people and people that may have been involved in TREASON! Of course we will never know because they shredded evrything and cleaned their tracks in a very professional manner. You've got to love that word 'may'.

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. Congress condemned the action, with a vote of 95-2 in the Senate and 311-41 in the House. 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. Let's see - Libby or FALN terrorists? I think I'll take Libby. Libby? *I was thinking of those Iran-Contra Traitors!
