I missed this story when it first came out a week ago, but a reader emailed it to me, suggesting it offered an interesting contrast with the handling of the Jaffer affair. George Bush last month granted a presidential pardon to a 54 year old Rhode Island woman who had been convicted in 1984 of falsifying her postal service timecard. In addition to paying back $1,200 in wages, and serving two years probation, she was tagged as a convicted felon.

Twelve hundred dollars. Keep that in mind when you read the OIG report on Azeez Jaffer.

Her presidential pardon proves bittersweet
