Was Ollie North pardoned for selling weapons to terrorists?
Btw, guess who Marc Rich's lawyer was? Scooter Libby, Cheney's right hand man. So I guess it's an equal opportunity scandal.
Are you outraged that the defender of "felons and terrorists" was working in the Republican white house for six years?
No, I thought not.
“The man attacking my integrity and reputation – and, I believe, quite possibly the person who exposed my wife’s identity – was the same Scooter Libby who, before he came into the new administration, was one of the principal attorneys for Marc Rich, ex-fugitive. Rich is the commodities trader who was convicted of having traded petroleum with Iran in violation of sanctions imposed on that country by the United States after the seizure of the American Embassy in Tehran and the taking of more than a hundred American hostages by supporters of Ayatollah Khomeini.”

Any outgoing Prez pardons those he chooses to pardon.
Don't believe everything you read in Right Wing Rags.
Good luck.

perhaps you need to focus on current events......I'll give you a few topics: the debacle in Iraq that is killing our soldiers, FBI corruption, and an administration that is willing to diminish our civil rights to fight this war on terror!!!!
