Obama announced last week that he would commute the sentences of 22 drug offenders, most of whom sold crack cocaine. The list contained many serving life sentences and even included those selling drugs in school zones.
“The 22 commutations granted today underscore the President’s commitment to using all the tools at his disposal to bring greater fairness and equity to our justice system,” stated Neil Eggleston, White House Assistant and Counsel to the President. “Further, they demonstrate how exercising this important authority can remedy imbalances and rectify errors in sentencing.”

Why do we bother with trials and judges and juries ? We could just ask for Obama to make the decisions about who belongs in jail and who does not . ????????
I come from a pretty heavy drug area and u just don’t see school kids smoking crack, so the headline seems kinda fishy. Most school kids are doing weed, Molly and alcohol. And where are the parents of these crack smoking kids?
Disgusting.
Obama is BIGGER than god
They’ll return to a life of crime, except possibly the pot dealer.
Supprise? Really….. “Dreams from my Father” Pp.93 “Pot had helped, and booze; maybe a little blow when you could afford it. Not smack, though – Micky, my potential initiator had been just a little too eager for me to go through with that” His words not mine….
He’s a drug offender so you should expect this from him. As a matter of fact isn’t offend a part of his name?
I’ll bet their black!
He needs too buddy up to convicts cause they will be his roommates in the future
SURE WHY NOT EVERYONE BAD GOES FREE WITH HIM
