This Day in Republican Infamy
On January 19th, 1989, Ronald Wilson Reagan, our 40th president, a simpleton, the lovable bufoon who gave us “Governement is the problem” and the absurdity of supply side economics, pardoned the odious George Steinbrenner for the crime of making illegal campaign contributions to the loathsome Richard Milhouse Nixon.
This is one of the 10 worst Presidential pardons of all time.
