Sometimes the president doesn't follow precedents
Item: Victor Rita, a decorated Marine veteran of the Vietnam and Gulf wars, appeals a 33-month sentence for lying to a grand jury about an alleged purchase of parts to make an illegal gun.
News Item: Bush administration argues successfully in Supreme Court against Rita's appeal for a lighter sentence.
But this was surely to set in motion a presidential commutation for a man who served his country and was charged with no other crime than lying.
Wait. Why are you laughing?
What did QT say that was so funny?
