what are we talking about? I see no OP source? Flynn deserves his house back and his name cleared though for sure
He pled guilty to prevent further financial loss to his family, Walter.Well, that is NOT a pardon then. Accepting a pardon is accepting guilt. If Flynn wants to clear his name, he wants a trial.
The fact is Flynn plead guilty. So either Flynn is guilty... OR he is guilty of perjury when he said he was guilty. Either way, he is a felon.
He pled guilty to prevent further financial loss to his family, Walter.
No, Walter, he wants a full pardon and will receive it.So according to you, Flynn perjured himself because he did not want the cost of a trial, but now he wants the cost of a trial?
No, Walter, he wants a full pardon and will receive it.
Why does the left always hate military leaders who serve their country in places like Afghanistan and Iraq?

I think its because the heroism of people like Flynn are a stark reminder of their own cowardice. It forces them to look inward and as we all know the left never has liked looking in the mirror at itself because there is no hiding the uglyness then.

accepting a pardon is accepting guilt for a convicted criminal.
Flynn isn't convicted and sentenced -the conviction can be overturned.
acceptance of guilt is inane at this time
If he accepts a pardon, he will be found guilty for life. There is no le
gal way to reverse that. He can even reverse a conviction, and he might be able to reverse his pleading guilty. He cannot reverse a pardon.
Funny you should mention that. Flynn bad mouthed almost every military leader he served with, and trump has bad mouthed the rest. Ever wonder where the hangers on were with Flynn? An officer quickly moving up in the ranks, and NO ONE wanted to attach themselves to him? It was because they did not like him.
what horse's ass claim is this Walt. Kislyak? you make the claim - clarifyConvictions can be overturned. Pardons can NOT be overturned. If Flynn takes a pardon, there is no way to clear his name. I doubt he would be able to clear his name, the evidence is air tight, but if you think he can... he should avoid a pardon.
Flynn was always able to not plead guilty, and he can reject a pardon. He made the decision to accept guilt, and it looks like he is making the decision to accept guilt again.
I think Flynn is the type that he will do anything to avoid punishment. Honor has no position in his calculations of what to do next. This is a man who sold his propaganda services to the Russians after all.
oh shit not this.. Russian companies paid Michael Flynn nearly $70,000 before the U.S. election, documents show https://www.latimes.com/nation/nationnow/la-na-pol-flynn-payments-russia-20170317-story.html

RT flew him out and he was paid travel and accommodations as well as a speaking fee.
SO what?
Flynn was doing busineas with Russians, not "propaganda" at all.
Flynn was of the mind to improve US /Russian relations to work together against terrorism to start a Russian reset
You know -the same thing Obama did thru Hillary's State dept, a Russian reset
