Ya know deltecs, I voted for GW twice as President, and every time as Governor, and quite honestly he was a great governor, which is why I voted for him as president. It isn't a matter of dislike for him, as I have never met him, nor wishing to bash him, as it is commonly referred to. It is a matter of facts, and this is just one of them.
In Texas, we are watching hospitals close due to illegal aliens abusing them, along with other social services, and hospitalization down here is outrageously high because of it. They don't insure themselves, and their cars, and will move into neighborhoods, and destroy property values by moving in 15 or 20 people into one house.
GW's and all the other politicians answer to the problem is the Patriot Act which affects no one but Americans, and REFUSING to shut down out borders.
This pardon issue is just one of many. Those Agents should have never spent a day in our prison system, or a day off the job. It is a sad day when the President of the United States has time to pardon a moonshiner and a bank robber, but will preach "national security" CONTINUALLY, and not pardon two Border Patrol Agents and at the same time commend them for stopping a drug smuggler. Americans need to support our troops and law enforcement and at the same time call it like it really is, instead of protecting and defending people they like, even when they are guilty of neglecting out security. When some one is doing a good job you support them. When they are IGNORING the people's will, and doing what they want to do, while promising something else, they should not be supported, nor defending but rebuked. JMO
