Kwame Kilpatrick. The End.

[Dennis2021]

Good laugh!!

[compn]

no one will commute nor pardon him until they find all that money they say he stole.

Wow, Just wow. Mrs. Kilpatrick raised a saint.

I see some "non profit" schemes, with tax subsidies, in his future, likely a church.

Thankfully Barack Hussein Obama will be just a bad memory in 206 days, long before the five year waiting period has elapsed.

Love how you include his middle name, as though an Arab-sounding name is supposed to make us all hate him.

And, considering I believe him to be the best U.S. president in my memory [[which goes back to JFK, although I was alive during the Eisenhower presidency), I will have only good memories of the Obama presidency. My only bad memories will be of the complete intransigence of McConnell, Boehner, Ryan, and the rest of the Republicans.

I'm a bit younger than you but I could not agree more. Another bad memory I'll add will be of the thinly veiled bigotry a certain minority has been inspired to reveal in reaction to his presidency. If there's a silver lining, it's useful to note who they are who are so afflicted. And thankfully it seems as the population ages, much of this problem will naturally continue to go away.

Too bad this comes on a Kwame Kilpatrick thread. Let him serve every day of his sentence.

Edit: One more bad memory: The Obama administration's deep rooted devotion to secrecy and refusal to comply with a high percentage of Freedom of Information Act requests. http://www.wnyc.org/story/sea-black-ink/ That's the only bad memory I can think of that is squarely his fault.

Unfortunately, I really get the feeling that President Obama is going to commute Kilpatrick's sentence down to 15-20 years. There's no way that he's going to let a record-tying [[public corruption) sentence of a black man [[and fellow Democrat, whom he has met) stand on his watch.

He was sentenced by today's standards,the commuted sentences were concidered excessive I.E. 20 years for a crack rock.He is not going to get that lucky because it is to early to determine that his sentence is excessive.

The Constitution says:

"The President ... shall have Power to Grant Reprieves and Pardons for Offenses against the United States, except in Cases of Impeachment."

I don't believe the president has the power to "reduce sentences".... it's all or nothing.

It's right in the article...

"Thirty-five recipients won't be released for another two years. Eggleston said every case is different, and that some applicants need more time for rehabilitation."

[Gistok]

Thanks, I stand corrected.... there's more than just Pardons.... there's Commutation, Remission and Reprieve.

Barak isn't actually black,.. He's Indonesian, and was adopted by Lolo Sotoro and Mary Ann Dunham when he was 6. Look at his facial features. African blacks facial features get more aggressive as they get older. Not so with Obama.

And there's no track-record of him having a soft spot for blacks. He's a Muslim,. and a homosexual,.. and as such, you see him catering to Muslim countries,.. giving them hundreds of millions, and nuke technology. You also see him pushing the gay agenda like the bathroom thing.

I see no reason to believe he'd even consider a Kwame pardon.

Well, I agree with you on the last sentence. As for the rest...

To anyone with half a brain.... Obama was talking about and to Michael Mullen whose wife's name is Debra.... and the "Jack" character is one of their two sons Lt. John Stewart Mullen....

Gotta love folks who have wacko theories for everything....

Paragraph 3 in this link from the Department of Justice describes a 5 year waiting period for a Presidential pardon: https://www.justice.gov/pardon/pardo...d-instructions

Well then tell the president to hurry up and ruin the country with so little time left. For about seven years, all we have heard are the gas bag rants predicting how BO was steering us over the water fall into the abyss.
Wish harder, if you're going to have any credibility at all. So far, the only result is a gas cloud.

Things take time to flesh out. Clinton's housing fiasco with the repeal of Glass Stegal first caused a massive housing bubble. The eventual crash [[from which we still haven't recovered) didn't happen until he was out of office a few years.

The effects of Obamacare are just beginning to be noticed [[much less full-time employment, higher healthcare costs, health insurance companies going under,.. doctors and hospitals starting to not accept the plans, etc),.....and the effects of Iran being given huge sums of money AND nuclear secrets won't come back to bite us for perhaps a decade,... and TPP hasn't even been signed yet. We're only just starting to see the effects of the importing of refugees.

We'll know how bad Obama was in 5-8 years, be patient.

I'm sorry that you have NOTHING but complaints for something that we have lacked behind other countries on health care [[Scandinavian countries. Europe}.

What is your option? State it now.

Sure.

Get rid of the AMA and their Rockefeller healthcare monopoly.

Then make it legal to cure disease again. That will cut healthcare costs perhaps 80%.

The previous system covered everyone one way or another [[the poor having to use the ER and not pay for it,.. it being illegal to turn away someone in distress). And with such a massive reduction in costs,.. instead of 85% of people having been able to afford health insurance,.. it would be more like 95%. And the remaining 5% can continue to use tthe ER like before.

A compelling argument, but why is that system NOT used by the majority of the first world industrial countries of the world already ?

And that system will bankrupt a family for a lifetime.

The foremost complainers of social medicine use it. [[Congress, State Legislature).
