39. You continue not to mention that one word...

... "pardon."

That shifts the possibilities in ways that don't exist for other criminal defendants. The Bushies can't afford to be exposed--they take down the rest of the Republican Party with them if they are. And they don't really care about popular opinion, so an immediate pardon is a possibility. Maybe an outside one, but a possibility, nevertheless.

That changes the calculus.

Cheers.
