Default Bush Pardon Betting Pool
Winners get to plotz...

I figure that he'll be pardoning his entire administration past and present, all those who committed tortured, the industrial military complex, and of course, the Carlyle Group....

{And Bush wants us to wait 50 years before we decides his legacy.}

The Raw Story | CNN: Scooter Libby may have requested Bush pardon

As President Bush gets closer to leaving the White House, expectations are mounting that he will follow his predecessors in issuing a slew of last-minute pardons on his way back to Texas.

Former Cheney chief of staff I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby, perhaps the best-known federal convict of the last eight years, may have filed a request for a pardon from President Bush, CNN's Sonny Hostin reported Monday. Libby was convicted of lying in the CIA leak case, but Bush commuted his sentence last year.
I wonder if Cheney is going to get one too?

The Raw Story | Obama advisers: Bush era war criminals will walk

Even as President-elect Obama vowed "to regain America's moral stature in the world" during Sunday's 60 Minutes appearance, two of his senior advisers confessed there is no intent to pursue those in the Bush administration who engaged in torture, a war crime.
Cross signals? We shall see...

The Raw Story | Naomi Klein: Bailout is 'multi-trillion-dollar crime scene'

Naomi Klein, author of The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism, has described the handling of the bailout as "borderline criminal" because of this and other problems. Klein spoke to Amy Goodman of Democracy Now! on Monday to explain her accusations.
Got to be ten good pardons here...

The Raw Story | Abramoff said he had agreement with White House aide just a month after Bush took office

Convicted lobbyist Jack Abramoff told his colleagues at his former law firm that he had an “agreement” regarding communications with a former assistant to then-Deputy Chief of Staff, Karl Rove, perhaps the most substantial documented tie between Abramoff and the White House to date.
Wow, Abramoff is a regular gold mine of pardons...
