Presidential Pardons
I am watching The Bronx is Burning, a miniseries on ESPN about the 1977 Yankees. It mixes historical references like the Son of Sam and the blackout with the story of the Yankees themselves.
Tonight's episode referenced the FALN bombings of August 3, 1977.
Which, of course, reminded me of the fact that Clinton commuted the sentences of 16 FALN members in 1999. At least they didn't commit perjury!

"It is the common fate of the indolent to see their rights become a prey to the active. The condition upon which God hath given liberty to man is eternal vigilance; which condition if he break, servitude is at once the consequence of his crime and the punishment of his guilt."
