OK, this is sarcasm, right? Because, if it is, BRILLIANT!!!!

If it isn't, then it's sad, oh so sad.

Why would he pardon a man who admitted to murder, and why give him a car?

After reading through the thread, I sense a bit of sarcasm in your post.

But yes, Barbour did do this, and its part of the reason he'll never run for President or higher office.

Funny thread. While the GOP would rail against any Dem that did this, IOKIYAAR.

Barbour's justification for this was his Christain faith. He said that as a Christain he believes that people can change and should be forgiven. Admirable sentiment -- but still... if I were one of the victim's family members, I'd be upset. Leave the forgiveness to Jesus -- let's fry the SOB.

Why not just make your point? This is 4 times in the last couple days where a poster, bent over so far backwards trying to be sarcastic that people thought he/she was serious and argued seriously against a sarcastic post. Ever heard the expression 'too clever by half?'

I guess everything has to be totally polarized and that there are no exceptions to the rule in any facet of life.....

Yeph, but he still is a republican

This has nothing to do with R or D it has to do with the fact Barbour is a pos human being and should have never let the killers out. When will people wake up and smell the coffee. R and D are 2 branches of the same tree.
