One year ago today the border agents, doing their job were thrown in jail. President Bush's refusal to pardon Border Patrol Agents Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean -- and White House spokesman Tony Snow's attitude of indifference regarding same -- is a slap in the face to families of murder victims slain by convicted felons in the country illegally and to our nation's law-enforcement professionals. Mr. President, you make me sick.Disregarding the borders and those that do their job to protect it. Sick. You wonder why conservatives have abandoned you? Worthless. Absolutely worthless. PARDON and release Ramos and Compean! California congressman and presidential candidate Duncan Hunter is attempting to take matters into his own hands. Mr. Hunter recently introduced the Congressional Pardon for Border Patrol Agents Ramos and Compean.
According to Mr. Hunter's staff, research indicates Congress has never enacted legislation purporting to grant an individual pardon. However, the Supreme Court has not ruled on the constitutional authority of Congress to grant individual pardons. Mr. Hunter's staff is currently in the process of obtaining the text of pertinent House and Senate bills. The White House stance is not only a slap in the face to families of murder victims and law enforcement. It is a slap in the face to American working-class families of all ethnic backgrounds.
