"Nobody defines [George H.W. Bush's] presidency, or his political character, by the fact that he pardoned his son. Hell, it wasn't even defined by the fact that Poppy pardoned everyone except Shoeless Joe Jackson on his way out the door so as to obscure forever his involvement in the Iran-Contra scandal."

(5 December: N.B. /21 below — Esquire has retracted Pierce's claim that Bush pardoned his son.)
