I am a “hack of the worst kind”
Chris Roach at Mansizedtarget.com says that those who denounced President Clinton for his flurry of pardons in his last days in office but now call for the pardon of Lewis Libby (a group that includes myself) are “hacks of the worst kind.” He expands on his views here.
In reply I must say that people who believe that all pardons are identical to all other pardons, a position that implies that all prosecutions and all criminal sentences are equally proper and equally just when compared to all other prosecutions and criminal sentences, and therefore if one opposes a pardon by a Democratic president one is logically required to oppose a pardon by a Republican president, are non-thinkers of the worst kind.
