If they lie about bushitler's I.Q.on the advertisement at this address,

Edited on Tue Jul-22-08 05:50 PM by lonestarnot

why should I believe them about this?

There are some exceptions: The chief executive can't pardon someone for a violation of state law or nullify a civil ruling, and his power doesn't extend to convictions handed down in an impeachment proceeding. (It's also not clear whether the president can pardon himself for future convictions.)

And isn't Slate a bunch of pugs?

1. the pardon power is about as close to absolute as it gets

That is why the pardons Clinton made didn't get more of a hearing than they did.
