Tancredo calls upon Dubya to pardon wrongfully convicted Border Patrol agents
Sen. Tom Tancredo of Colorado appeared on FOX recently, and called for Dubya to pardon some Border Patrol agents who were wrongfully convicted of shooting a drug smuggler. Here's a video on Hot Air. I can't say that Allahpundit's a Tancredo supporter, if I've read his entries correctly, but O'Reilly's the one who's certainly unsympathetic, knowing what he's really made of.
Tancredo is correct that these men should not be persecuted for trying to capture a scumbag whose idea of making a living was at the expense of people's sanity. Here's an important article on the case from the Daily Bulletin (via Debbie Schlussel). These honorable agents should not spend even a day further in jail; it is the drug smuggler himself who should be thrown in the clink by now.
Others on the subject include Webloggin, Independent Conservative, Right Truth, The Amboy Times, 7.62mm Justice, Traction Control, The Lion of Judah, Pirates' Cove, Seeker's Jar, You Decide 2008, IMAO, Claidheamh, The Arizona Growler.
