If anyone else gets prosecuted (51 intelligence officials, cough, cough) Hunter could be called as a witness. Because of the pardon he now cannot invoke the Fifth Amendment. So he either spills the beans or perjures himself and the perjury falls outside the timeline for the pardon. Checkmate.

Hunter will simply say that he "doesn't remember" - neither spilling the beans nor perjuring himself. Unfortunately, many prosecutions will not end in conviction. But they can expose obviously illegal and unconstitutional conduct by officials.

The new nato secretary general тАЬnever had an active memoryтАЭ of anything while pm of the netherlands; presumably the grey cells will also fail him in his new job (pun intended, but no pun really).

But he can still lie, or am I missing something? CouldnтАЩt he say I donтАЩt remember, I wasnтАЩt thereтАж so he lies in court. What happens, jail time?
