Which so far as I can tell is what the disregard and deletion process that jgc describes in http://blog.jgc.org/2011/11/why-im-not-supporting-campaign-f... will achieve.

A pardon is not the same thing. Nothing to see here, move long :)



The difference here is that the "disregard and deletion process" is an ad-hoc mechanism put in place by an ordinary act that can be later repelled.

In many legislation such a favor rei mechanism is a funding principle and a tenet of law.
