Am I Missing Something?

Governor Rounds has announced his latest pardons and one in particular caught my eye:

Gary Sapulding was sentenced in Fall River County on Oct. 18, 1985 to eight years in prison for sexual contact with a minor younger than 16.

I am not familiar with the circumstances behind this case but is there a reason he is pardoning sexual predators?

No Longer An Excuse?

After approving $700 billion to bailout big banks for their poor business practices (did you see 60 Minutes last night?), has our government effectively taken away the excuse that we cannot afford something? We don’t seem too worried about going so far into debt that our children will still be paying it off so why not go all the way and make sure they have heath care while they are standing in line at the soup kitchens?

What else can we now get that we have always wanted but couldn’t afford? Paying for it shouldn’t be a problem, we can just print more. Just wondering….
