#1 Carny folks, huh? Perfect.
I'll bet it cost damn good money for that pardon, but Bill probably would've settled for a used cotton candy machine...

#2 United Shows' owners -- Edgar Gregory Jr. and his wife, Vonna Jo Gregory -- were pardoned by Mr. Clinton in March 2000, despite an objection by the Justice Department.

Makes you wonder if this had anything to do with Grady Lobster Boy Stiles getting off with only fifteen years probation for first degree homicide.

#3 You can pick your wife and you can pick your nose but you can't pick your brothers and sisters. Whatever business Huge Rodham is involved with is his responsibility. Hell I would hate to answer for things my relatives have done and unless he is her ward than she has no responsibility towards him. This is like tying the fact that Bush's daughter ordered a margarita in a resturant in Texas while she was not of legal drinking age. Unless the President was at the table when she ordered the drink then I can't see how he can be blamed for his daughters behavior. Focus on Hillary not her family, it makes for poor politics.

#4 Special favors given to relatives & friends are fair points of discussion in politics.

#5 But the $107,000 was the include price of the pardon.
