Faux News talking about prosecution of Felt, denying further pension
and of course they didn't cover the family's press conference when CNN/MSNBC did. Judge Andrew Napalitano called Felt "a goat" who should be prosecuted except for the fact that the statute of limitations expired.

2. But I thought their hero Ronnie Raygun gave him a full pardon?
In 1981?

6. That pardon was for doing the sort of things that he subsequently
leaked to W&B. He was not pardoned for leaking 'state secrets', IOW, telling the truth about governmental criminal activity.

7. A pardon is absolute!
Once the President pardons a person, is like Divine forgiveness, it covers all the sins. Specificity is not required by the Constitution!

11. Good point.
If Felt gets off easy, what's to stop people from ratting on Shrubby?

They have to make a show, anyway, even if the poor old dude is 91.

4. What a bunch of whiney-asses at Faux
They'll never get over Nixon getting caught. And I'd think they would now wonder just what dubya has gotten by with........so far.

5. This is great
It just gets funnier and funnier. Gnawing off their limbs in frustration. I'd like to see what charges they could come up with. As far as I know, he didn't break any laws. He just told a couple of reporters where they should look for a story.

8. I'm kind of surprised at the animosity toward him.
I mean, weren't people speculating that it was Pat Buchanan, lots of other people?

I seem to remember some kind of Deep Throat anniversary, or something, and no one was saying that Deep Throat should be prosecuted, that he was a goat, or anything else.

Now that they know who it is, the insults start?
Makes me wonder whether they thought it was Poppy, or someone "good".

Bunch of punk asses, they.

9. These people are fucking ghouls
:grr: :grr: :grr:

Give the old soul a break, he's earned it. But they hate him- because he's a truth teller- the ripple in their Matrix universe.

10. Are they suggesting prosecuting Linda Tripp & Monica?
For "ratting out" the President? They are hollering that Felt did the same to Nixon, after all.
