Rohrabacher: 'Bush Doesn't Give a Damn'

Washington, DC (TLS). A Republican Congressman in the U.S. House of Representatives stated that President Bush 'doesn't give a damn' about the lives of the two Border Patrol agents who sit in prison, their request to be released on bond pending an appeal of their conviction denied. Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, R-CA, made the charge in response to the court's decision to deny the release of the two falsely accused agents who shot an illegal alien drug smuggler from Mexico in the buttocks.

According to Rep. Rohrabacher, 'the lives of agents Ramos and Compean are obviously at risk, and the President not only doesn't care about securing our southern border, he doesn't give a damn about those who protect it.'

Rohrabacher lays the blame for the entire fiasco directly at the feet of the President of the United States, whom the Congressman says is more concerned about the public relations nightmare with Mexico in the event of the release of the two agents than he is about their lives. Fear of the damage the release of the two would do to Bush's reputation with the Mexican government is the driving factor in the President's refusal to issue pardons, according to Rohrabacher.

The Liberty Sphere agrees. As we reported on Friday, nothing that has come to light about the case in the last few weeks has done anything but reinforce initial suspicions that the two Border Patrol agents are the victims of a government set-up job. The Department of Homeland Security admitted to Congress that it lied in order to secure a conviction of the two men.

Yet the President still refuses to pardon the agents or reprimand government officials handling the case. At the very least investigations should ensue into gross misconduct, and high crimes and misdemeanors, on the part of at least a dozen or more government officials connected with the case.

The longer the President waits to act the more he himself is implicated in this sordid mess.
