[QUOTE="Margonme, post: 1375533, member: 25776"] I am not sure of the legal limits but the intention was to give the highest office in the land Powers to Pardon to correct a perceived miscarriage of Justice. It has become a political tool and an extreme abuse of power. I copied this from Wikipedia: [b]The power to pardon is one of the least limited powers granted to the President in the Constitution. The only limits mentioned in the Constitution are that pardons are limited to offenses against the United States (i.e., not civil or state cases), and that they cannot affect an impeachment process.Jul 9, 2007[/b] [/QUOTE]
