I’m sure he will be pleased with this pardon. Cannot wait to see him express his gratitude and thank the Governor.

See, all it takes is a 168 years. Who says there’s discrimination out there?
When President Obama says the arc of the universe bends towards justice, I don’t think this is exactly what he was referring to.
I congratulate Gov. Markell for doing the right thing. Yes, it is purely symbolic, no one is claiming that it actually helps Burris in any way, but symbols are important. Compare this to all the people who are still fighting to preserve the “honor” of the Confederacy.
Once we change enough of the symbols, we start to change the conversation.
