There's also a couple drug dealers in there too. Not that any of this particularly bothers me, I just thought it was interesting, since technically this guys a convicted terrorist.9/28/2005 9:51:06 PM |

actually, the most surprising thing is that Bush would pardon a union member. I wouldn't have expected that. 9/28/2005 10:17:48 PM |

I'm surprised. A fucking union member? Maybe his goal was to bomb the union? 9/28/2005 11:50:49 PM |

No no, he needs those workers to dig in his coal mines to promote his Dirty Skies Initiative. Duh. 9/29/2005 8:56:59 AM |

^^^no, it says he was a member of the union. Also, he got convicted for blowing something up and for damaging an energy related building in excess of 100k or with the intent of disrupting a power supply.
maybe he was a scab or something and so he got framed. That could explain it. 9/29/2005 9:41:33 AM |
