here's a shocker

Can you imagine the list of cretinous, Republican felons that Bush is going to let off scot-free?

Thompson to ask Bush to free Ryan

Former Gov. Jim Thompson announced today that he will ask President Bush to commute former Gov. George Ryan's 6 1/2 year prison sentence.

"The man has gone from being the governor of the state of Illinois to being a prisoner in the federal penitentiary," Thompson said at a news conference at the Winston & Strawn offices this afternoon.

"I think it would be appropriate for the president of the United States to commute to time served."
