Editorial #1

So i found an editorial all about how few pardons George W. Bush gave at the end of his term. Bush actually gave very few and the editorial criticized him for this. The author continued to talk about how there is no point in having the power to pardon if you dont use it to it's full extent. Also it speculated that the reason for so few pardons was because of all of the drama after Clinton's term. Personally I think Bush didn't want to create anymore drama than he already had with the war and the economy. Hopefully Obama can use this power to the full extent to show how it is truly supposed to be used.
