Schwarzenegger Grants Three Pardons

by TChris

TalkLeft recently called attention to the stingy pardon practices of two Georges: Pataki and Bush. California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger merits at least mild praise for the pardons he granted to three drug offenders who (according to his proclamation) "turned their lives around through hard work and public service and years later are pillars of their communities." Three is not a generous number -- c'mon Governor, it's Christmas! -- but it beats the number pardoned during all the years Gray Davis was in office: zero.
