VIDEO-- Dana Perino: "Talk to the hand" when it comes to pardons

By GottaLaff


::Will you just leave us alone? Just as what our government e-mails might reveal, who we extraordinary rendition, who we waterboard, whose lives we destroy for any given reason, what our reasons are for bombing sovereign countries who've never attacked us, whether or not we throw the country into economic chaos, which covert agents we decide to out, who we torture, which species we endanger, how many times we illegally eavesdrop, who we meet with to make policy, and who we publicly smear are none of your damn business, neither is who we decide to pardon.::

In that case, Dana, allow me to break from protocol and get all transparent on you: Suck it*, BushCo.

Via Think Progress:

Last month, Perino insisted that the White House would follow the Department of Justice guidelines for issuing pardons. However, the administration broke with protocol in pardoning predatory mortgage lender Issac Toussie — forcing Bush to revoke the pardon just weeks later.
