Pardon Me

("Joe Biden Pardons his son Hunter")

Pardon me.

Joe Biden has spent a life in service to this country. Has suffered unspeakable personal losses and endured. Has been a man of honor and integrity. He deserves none of the slings and arrows that will undoubtedly surface following his announcement regarding Hunter.

Yes, President Biden was clear and unequivocal in his earlier statements in not granting a pardon to his son for gun and tax related offenses which, upon inspection, seem less than deeply offensive. And considering the goose and gander comparison with the incoming President, between the litany of wrongs for which he would have pardoned himself given the chance and his commitment to releasing the January 6ers from their transgressions, one can hardly find President Biden's reversal to be either egregious or outrageous.

Yes, the President most likely lied earlier as to his intentions as a political calculation during the heat of the election season. He now needs only about 30,000 more to catch up to Mr. Trump.

Joe Biden requires absolutely no pardon for his actions.
