Democrats Are Softies

I read on Breitbart.com and then listened to the newscasts that GW has finally done the right thing and commuted the sentences of agents, Compean and Ramos. To this I say, "it's about time". The two were found guilty of shooting in the buttocks a Mexican drug dealer and, as we later found out after his initial wounding, continued his occupation. The two agents were found guilty in 2005 of lying about the circumstances of the shooting. Sources expect they will be released within two months. This scenario forced me to find out about other presidents and how they handled the pardon/commutation process. So, beginning with Harry Truman credit him with having the biggest heart of all. He let out 2,034 folks while serving just under eight years as president. Dwight Eisenhower was a 'lenient', too. He let out 1,100 in eight years. John Kennedy was on his way to tying Truman. He only served two and three quarter years, give or take a few days, and handed out 572 get out of jail free cards. Jimmy Carter let 563 out in a four year span followed by Ronald Reagan with 406(eight years). Next was George W. Bush with 189 for eight years. His cold-hearted dad only let out 77(four years). I always knew there was something "hard" about the man. Wait! I'm forgetting Bill Clinton. He let out 457 in eight years but there's an addendum to his pardons. Tabulations are still being taken on the amount of cash given to him from his ex-cons. Unlike Bush 41 he felt their pain. I didn't check out Johnson, Nixon or Ford. I have to shovel the walk outside and don't have the time. You can do it yourself if you're that interested. Democrats are living up to their name of "liberal" when it comes to pardons but you had to know it would be this way.
