I'm honestly surprised it took this long. Daily Kos has worked themselves up into a frenzy over the Scooter Libby commutation (Ed. Note: We here at BBB try not to weigh in on one side of a debate or another, we just like to point out ridiculousness). Most recently, arguing frantically that Bush's commutation is not at all equivalent to Bill Clinton's pardons.
Whether or not Bush's commutation, which seems designed to cover his own ass, is equivalent to Clinton's pardoning his brother, terrorists, and some criminal who gave him a ton of money; we don't see enough of a difference to get in such a tizzy. Looks like a bunch of old white guys abusing their power. Given the way this is playing out, you'd think democrats and republicans could get together on this one.
