Bush to pardon Roger Clemens?

Will Bush throw a pardon to Clemens?
Saturday, January 17, 2009

Brian McNamee met with federal investigators to discuss Roger Clemens, who is being investigated by the feds.

If Clemens is charged with perjury, as Barry Bonds has been, he would be looking at a possible jail sentence. Rusty Hardin, his lawyer, wouldn't be doing his job correctly if he didn't at least poke around and investigate the question of whether the pitcher might receive a pardon from Clemens' fellow Texan, George W. Bush, before the president departs from office Tuesday. You'd have to assume that Bush's underlings have at least mused over the politics of a possible pardon for the pitcher, and considered both sides of the ledger.

1. "fellow Texan"

Wee Cowboy was born in Connecticut, went to high school at Phillips Academy in Massachusetts (current tuition: $39,100 ) where, incidentally, he was head cheerleader; went to college at Yale in Connecticut (current tuition: $46,000 annually); spent some time in the USAF stateside while the Vietnam war was killing thousands of young Americans every year, then got his MBA from Harvard (located in Cambridge, Massachusetts) after being denied admission to the University of Texas.

He's about as Texan as I am Martian.
