This makes me sick. They don't even bother hiding the cronyism in Washington any longer.

I will admit, I was surprised that Bush didn't pardon him on his way out. Now I guess I know why. Why bother with a pardon if the Justice Dept is just going to drop the charges?

"Justice" department..... not even close.

Maybe CNN is just playing an April Fools joke?

It might to have to do with him being 110 years old.

They could put him under nursing home arrest?

Of course!
I am sure they are too busy trying to find the guys that
ran aig into the ground!
They'd really have their work cut out for 'em
if they ever showed up in DC!
Extremely odd not one greedy person has been charged in this.
(cept bernie, and he's just a fall guy. someone to be mad at
while everyone else really MADOFF with our future)

Maybe the dept is just too busy going after the peeps(states)
that dont cooperate with the plans that are coming down.
Hmmm. always somethin' crazy, like the economy.
