Conveniently timed for a late afternoon Friday release, President Obama has granted eight pardons. Scanning down the list of felons, there's two convicted of marijuana related crimes, another who conspired to distribute methamphetamine, and one man who was "aiding and abetting the possession and sale of illegal American alligator hides" in 1986.
