When you design tactics to maximise suffering on civilian populations and your only constraint is operational rather than moral, you've told the world who you are.

Well, today's the day for the outgoing Presidential Pardons list.
Any bets?
10 Bush pardons to watch for - Josh Gerstein - Politico.com lists the most contentious ten possibles. I don't think it goes as far as I would in its speculation.

I definitely think Ramos and Compean should be freed. This was a grave injustice to them and I think it is shamefull that they were so badly treated.
7. Commutation Prospects: Former Border Patrol agents Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean
Status: Convicted in 2006 of shooting fleeing drug smuggling suspect who was illegal alien; Compean sentenced to 12 years in prison; Ramos to 11 years
Pros: Crusade for clemency led by CNN anchor Lou Dobbs; commutation supported by Sens. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) and John Cornyn (R-Tex.), as well as conservative lawmakers
Cons: Dobbs was no friend of Bush’s immigration policy; could be seen as endorsing police abuse
Politico Odds: 3 to 1

Just what are your speculations anyway?
Maybe President Bush has more restraint than his predecessor on this matter?
I think he is gonna disapoint you spot.

Bush did commute their sentences at the last minute. Ramos and Compean will be released on March 20th. Just two months away. Good for them.
