Presidential pardons are exclusively up to a sitting President. Most Presidents wait until the end of a term and issue a boatload of pardons. Of course, the current President pardoned Scooter Libby's conviction for his role in outing a CIA Agent.[/quote]

And just wait till you see who Bush pardons, it's going to be a blanket pardon to include everyone in his administration or who were involved in torture, warrantless wire tapping, subverting the justice department for political gain,
and the list goes on.
