D'Souza's conviction was just one of many examples of "prosecutorial discretion" used to punish political enemies of the Obama Administration. Every time I see or hear President Obama congratulating himself for having a "scandal-free Administration" I vomit in my mouth

Capt Gregory Prickett - You don't read very well for someone who has practiced law. MSgt Steve Sweeney presumed to define "guilty" for me and I informed him it wasn't necessary inasmuch as I hadn't said anything about guilt or innocence and I am educated in those terms. He had the good sense to shut up, but you felt obligated to get in an unnecessary crack. Sadly, you didn't read the discussion thread and made yourself look like a fool. I expect better from someone who was supposedly taught the value of saying what they mean and meaning what they say. Obviously, I won't be calling on you for legal assistance and I would dissuade anyone else from using an attorney who is similarly lax in their skills.

Capt Gregory Prickett MSgt Steve Sweeney "Guilt" may be a word game to shysters and ideologues, but it is a legal determination invented by man. We may, for example, argue over whether or not OJ murdered his wife, but we must accept his innocence. Similarly, it is a waste of time to argue over D'Souza's guilt. The case was adjudicated and the verdict rendered. Indeed, there wouldn't be any necessity of a pardon if their was no guilt. President Trump's pardon is not about guilt or innocence. It is a recognition of the fact that D'Souza was prosecuted for a crime most often ignored at the discretion of prosecutors for political reasons. D'Souza was embarrassing a sitting President and his successor is now embarrassing that President. Now you may fight and complain all you like. You may insult me. I don't give a damn. Frankly, I am not even speaking directly to you. I am leaving these comments for the benefit of those who have the misfortune of stumbling upon this discussion thread in the future. I don't want them to be misled by your attempts to denigrate my observations

Capt Gregory Prickett - Says the man who is constantly slinging mud at people for their "beliefs". I didn't sling mud. I responded appropriately. Now, see if you can follow the discussion thread. I originally posted about "prosecutorial discretion". The Sergeant responded with "guilt", a non sequitir. I asked if he wanted me to explain "prosecutorial discretion". He responded with snark. You jumped in with an insult. So, who's the mud-slinger in this scenario?

MSgt Steve Sweeney - There is no legally mandated process for a President to follow in granting pardons. As for tradition, I think we can also agree that President Trump isn't overly traditional.

Since when do we punish unrepentant felons who admit the felony? This is a pardon in support of election fraud. You will notice that even the article did not say he did not commit the felonies,

Did you mean "pardon" instead of "punish" in your first sentence? What you are saying doesn't make sense. Did you read the article?

Col Joseph Lenertz - It should have been pardon, My apologies, I read the artcle and fount that it was political hackery that would have bit on Brietbart except it was too literate, He did commit the felonies, thatt was proven in court, he is unrepentant and that is also simply a fact. Is being propagandist really a good enough reason to pardon a criminal,
Where in that article is evidence that he did not commit the multiple felonies he was convicted of?
