John McCain admitting that he was a âwar criminalâ and that was he pardoned by President Richard Nixon for his crimes are some of the current rumors about the Arizona senator. There have been rumors about McCainâs service.
Why Pardoning Nixon Was Wrong. Ignore the cost-free magnanimity of Ford's rehabilitators. You had it right the first time. In the days since Gerald Ford's death, so much praise has been heaped on the late president's blanket pardon to his predecessor, Richard Nixon, that you'd think Tricky Dick was Jean Valjean. These magnanimous pronouncements are a preening exercise in cost-free generosity three decades after the fact.
