I've dedicated 31 posts to this subject since the agents were arrested straight through last week which can all be seen and read here.
My latest donation resulted in these ribbons being sent to which I was getting ready to install in the corner of this blog, and was to hopefully encourage others to do so as well, like the Israeli support ribbons we all see on the right wing blogs that this blog used to carry until the script no longer functioned with this present banner I've been using. Here's the ribbon.....
Thank goodness I can sh**can that idea, and again thank God above that Bush heard our prayers, and may these poor men and their families libve happily ever after in spite of this malpractice of Justice by Prosecutor Johnny Sutton, a Bush appointee and rogue prosecutor who should be imprisoned himself for this rogue illegal prosecution.

Bush commutes sentences of former US border agents:God bless America, the system finally worked for these poor men today, and thank president Bush for hearing our pleas and prayers.
"WASHINGTON (AP) - In his final acts of clemency, President George W. Bush on Monday commuted the prison sentences of two former U.S. Border Patrol agents whose convictions for shooting a Mexican drug dealer ignited fierce debate about illegal immigration.
Bush's decision to commute the sentences of Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean, who tried to cover up the shooting, was welcomed by both Republican and Democratic members of Congress. They had long argued that the agents were merely doing their jobs, defending the American border against criminals. They also maintained that the more than 10-year prison sentences the pair was given were too harsh.
Rancor over their convictions, sentencing and firings has simmered ever since the shooting occurred in 2005.
Ramos and Compean became a rallying point among conservatives and on talk shows where their supporters called them heroes. Nearly the entire bipartisan congressional delegation from Texas and other lawmakers from both sides of the political aisle pleaded with Bush to grant them clemency.
Bush didn't pardon the men for their crimes, but decided instead to commute their prison sentences because he believed they were excessive and that they had already suffered the loss of their jobs, freedom and reputations, a senior administration official said. continued
