Should Bush Pardon Obama?

I think Bush may have to actually pardon Obama before Obama gets in office. Our country really can't have a crisis like this happening now. Obama hasn't looked good in this so far. They've had no contact with the governor, uh... well, maybe some contact, uh... well, Rohm is on the tapes. Did they know what the governor was up to, and didn't say anything?


Besides, it's a good political move. Pardon him, and in four years the republicans can remind everyone about it.

Pardon him for what? The more likely scenario would be Obama giving a pardon to Bush! LOL!

We can't have our president being involved in such a terrible case of corruption. And as I said, could be a good political move for Republicans. So yes, maybe he should do it to end the investigation and for a little political firepower.

Nobody has produced any evidence of wrongdoing on Obama's part, and none appears to be forthcoming.

Don't you see? There is no need for any evidence, Bush can just pardon him for any possible involvement in the scandal. It's absolutely brilliant I say, BRILLIANT!!!

Oh, please. Do you really think Obama would do this after being elected? He would run like the wind from such activity. What is there to gain, when he is running a country of 305 million - and
