Suppose you are the President elected in November 2008

[Kickin' Ass and Takin' Names]

You are elected President in November 2008. You take office in
January 2009.

The new Attorney General brings charges of treason, malfeasance, and
attempted subversion of the Constitution against George Bush and Dick
Cheney. A grand jury indicts them on all charges and a jury finds
them guilty and sentence both to life imprisonment.

Bush and Cheney appeal to you for clemency.

What do you do???

Juries don't sentence people; judges do that. But I digress.
Isn't it obvious that a President who allowed his Attorney
General to bring charges(and no AG would do so without his bosses
approval), would not go for clemency?
Of course your whole premise is fatally flawed, since there
has been no treason, etc. If there was, the HOR should impeach...why
wait until 2009?

Depends on whether they were really guilty or the conviction was
political. I would pardon Bush if he was convicted over a few wire taps
because Clinton lobbied long time for and finally got voice recognition
super computers which listen to virtually every phone call made in the
US and records any hits for key words or key phrases for later review.
In fact the fuss made over Bush's wire taps is actually a smoke screen
to give more credibility to the massive eavesdropping system.

The most guilty thieves in the US are the super rich who own the Fed.

I would too.

You're wrong.

From http://www.nytimes.com/2007/01/23/washington/23scotus.html

The Supreme Court invalidated California's criminal sentencing law on
Monday, ruling that the 30-year-old statute gave judges authority that the
Constitution places with juries.
