This is the headline above an article by Elizabeth Holtzman, the former prosecutor who's been angling for Bush's impeachment.

Here's the case she makes:

"Thirty-two years ago, President Gerald Ford created a political firestorm by pardoning former president Richard Nixon of all crimes he may have committed in Watergate - and lost his election as a result. Now, President Bush, to avoid a similar public outcry, is quietly trying to pardon himself of any crimes connected with the torture and mistreatment of US detainees."

She's got a point.
