Yep. His home town paper put his announcement on the obit page. :lulz:

Also, in a very Huckabee-esque move, the child molester he pardoned was later arrested for more of the exact same behavior:
Quotethe man Pawlenty pardoned was later arrested again for molesting his daughter more than 250 times in an eight-year span, including six years prior to his pardon.
Jeremy Giefer served 45 days in prison in 1994 after being convicted of statutory rape. However, because he married the then-14-year-old girl and stuck around to father the child they conceived together, he begged the state for an extraordinary pardon, which would no longer require Giefer to report himself as a sex offender.
The board — which includes the Minnesota attorney general, the chief justice of the Minnesota Supreme Court, and the governor (Pawlenty, at the time) — voted unanimously to pardon Giefer.
<snip>
Pawlenty's fledgling presidential campaign has already seen drama, when Benjamin Foster, a campaign consultant for Pawlenty, was arrested for trespassing and public intoxication when he vomited in an Iowa voter's yard and woke up the family's teenage daughter by banging on the back door.
Another campaign staffer, campaign manager Nick Ayers, brings a boozy whiff of controversy as well: It's widely known that he was arrested for drunk driving in 2006.

OH FFS.
Huckabee - Grants clemency to a murderer that found Jebus, guy runs out and kills 4 state cops.
Pawlenty - Pardons a guy who impregnated a 14 year old, the guy rapes their daughter 250 times.

The fact is, it's called FAMILY VALUES. I wouldn't expect a DHIMMICRAT supporter of the CHICAGO THUG-IN-CHIEF to understand our God-blessed Heartland ways.

The sick part is, that could be a direct quote from some of the lackwits I've dealt with online...
