Yep. Tim's post is closer to what a cypherpunk would do if elected. :) I suspect that as soon as the election is over, probably in two weeks, we'll hear plenty of calls for "healing" and enough GOP leaders will go along with such a move. -Declan On Sun, Nov 26, 2000 at 07:59:59PM -0600, Mac Norton wrote:
Use your head. One of the first things Bush does is pardon Bill Clinton. After all, given who's in charge of the prosecution, if Gore gets elected Clinton gets prosecuted so the Repubs can keep that circus going; if Bush gets elected, it's not only no longer important, it looks vindictive, which is inconsistent with the compassionate conservatism we've been hearing less and less about lately and with "turning this country around", whatever that meant.
So Bush pardons Clinton, which has the added plus of forcing Clinton to the choice of taking it or not. That's *real* revenge. Not that W. is that smart/mean, but his daddy is. MacN

I notice you're babbling about what's on "60 Minutes" but not saying a peep about the certification of the election in Bush's favor.
Now that an incoming Republican Administration will be able to prosecute Bill for his various crimes, Hillary for her tax evasion and insider trading and Algore on treason charges, I can hear Air Force One warming up its engines for its flight to Cuba.
Fidel has offered asylum to Bill and Al,but not to Hillary. She's too far left even for him.
Hillary may have to take refuge with either the Palestinians, where she can hug Yassir's wife all she wants, or ZOG. Maybe she can set up a double-wide in "No Man's Land." A lesbian sistah like her would no doubt like the sound of that.
Regarding the Demonrats who tried to steal this election, I say it's time to take out the trash.
