Old Dec 16th, 2003, 06:34 PM        I just realized something...
Can a president pardon himself for his crimes? And if he could, would that have saved Nixon (in theory, because gave up his seat once Watergate was exposed)?

I don't know that they could do that once impeachment has been levied. But I dunno.....

I think that Ford pardoned Nixon when he took office ... more research is required, though.

Ford did pardoned Nixon, and many didn't forgave him for doing so, and then later lost the election to Carter.

Well, in order to be pardoned, you need to be convicted of a crime. Its kind of hard for a sitting president to be convicted. Thats what impeachment is for.

Not necessarily. If they don't garner enough votes to impeach, the Department of Justice can still intercede and file criminal charges on the president.

You can't pardon yourself without being kicked out for abusing your powers on the basis of pure gayness. That's like saying you can fly by lifting up the chair you're sitting on.

You can pick your friends and you can pick your nose but you can't pick your friend's nose.

Discover the amazing flavour of Lay's VIVA! It's rich in OMEGA NINE and it's wavy all over! THIS IS WHY YOU WILL LOVE LAY'S VIVA:
BECAUSE YOU LOVE YOURSELF!
For a proper and balanced diet, the consuming of food rich in OMEGA NINA is suggested. The new Lay's VIVA, now with 33% less in chalories, are produced with olive oil rich in OMEGA NINE! Oil from oliv is one of the most nutritious and it helps significantly in the control of one's cholisterole level, since it contains roughly 80% of... GHASP!!! OIL ACID OMEGA NINE! ...and only 10% fat.
