What makes us different from totalitarian rule is that regime change doesn't equal putting the former regime in jail. If we start throwing presidents and their officials in jail who the hell are we going to get to run the country?!? Shit happens! Especially in war, which is always messy, and even more so when terrorism is in the mix along with the potential of American cities disappearing into a cloud of dust and smoke.

The president must have the confidence to be able to make the right calls to defend America. I don't want him making the wrong calls because some partisans on the other side are judging his every action to see if they can throw him in jail after his presidency ends.

Bunch of garbage, bubbalah.... Daddy Bush had a gf; Eisenhower; Kennedy (well, we know about Kennedy); Roosevelt...

The Clinton blue dress thing, led by a bunch of hypocrites like Henry Hyde who was carrying on his own little affair.

Gotta stop beating that dead horse.. Clinton still has almost a 70% approval rating...same as he did then.

I am all for the probe. Let Bush be villified once and for all and let's move on with this. His policies have kept us safe for the past 7 years.
Oh, sure... just as the lack of a criminal investigation into your behavior over the last 8 years does not mean that you're free of guilt.

Now friends... let us recall the hundreds of posts wherein, myself and dozens of other Americans have pointed to the tyrannical certainty of lending power to leftists...

Not to worry though... I've told you that they will egregiously abuse that power and as a result they will bring about what must be inevitable civil war... and it is at that point where we will eviscerate the cancer of leftism as we tend to our sacred responsibility to defend our individual human rights.

Let us recognize that the concept wherein a man is guilty until he proves himself innocent is being advanced by these idiots and in so doing they threaten the rights of every free man...

Arm yourselves and make yourself proficient in the use of those arms in preparation of defending your rights from the clear and present danger represented by a tyrannical ideology which has come to power, as it always comes, on the backs of the idiot 'center'... and which will now begin to gather power for no other purpose than do defend that power; they are everything the founders of the US warned us about and we are now faced with enduring that which the founders endured to free themselves from it.

You're even more delusional than the CT's. The epidome of naivete is to think that Americans will get off their collective asses to support anything political beyond voting. 4 million people can show up to watch a baseball team have a championship parade, but when it comes time to act politically, maybe a couple thousand get off their fat fucking asses to do something.

And then most of the time, they get berated by the marjority for even doing so.

Revolution. Please.

No politicians has to perform duties that are against the law. That is a cop out.

If they broke the law, they should be punished be it Repug or Dem.

Not to say anything about 8 fucking years of Ken Starr spending 70 million tax dollars to try and get something on Clinton and ending up with a perjured blow job that didn't even happen before they went fishing for something to get him on.

What a bunch of hippo crypts.

Torture is against the law. Spying on American citizens is against the law. Breaking the FISA law is against the law.

Sorry, but Nixon was wrong when he said that if the president did it, it wasn't against the law.

Whining little weasel having lost the control to control the truth.

As if approval ratings mean anything. John Ziegler proved that Obama's voters knew nothing more about his background or his policies than "hope" and "change" and that Sarah Palin said she could see Russia from her house (even though it was actually Tine Fey that said it).

Bubba placed the presidency in a position to be blackmailed. And he may have been. We still do not know why he just up and gave the Chinese intercontinental missile technology that enabled them to reach N.A. with nukes, which they were nowhere near developing on their own. If you want to prosecute a president here's the issue to investigate.

ROFLMNAO... to understand any issue, it has to be placed into the proper context; and the context in which Bush foreign policy rests is that wherein the US IS AT WAR WITH ILLEGAL COMBATANTS WHO SPEND THEIR TIME PLOTTING MASS MURDER...

So what these idiots are crying about is policy which was bent around the defense of the US from these cretins. Meaning that those crying about Bush policy 'violating the law' are actually DEFENDING MASS MURDERERS and using 'the law' which made their MASS MURDER POSSIBLE as the excuse...

Brace yourselves kids... Islamic terrorism is on the precipice of being thoroughly VALIDATED; the result of which will be more attacks on the US, her interests and allies and wherein each of those attacks kills greater and greater number of INNOCENT PEOPLE; Which is the CHANGE you idiots voted for and that is a personal decision for which you ALL will be held accountable and sooner than later, I suspect…

Like anyone is going to get up a head of steam to have a revolution to protect an ex-president who left office with an approval rating of about 25% anyway... *sigh*

And why would they "get up...." to protect Bush?-*

Where were all you liberals screaming for presidential investigations for an unjust war when Bubba attacked the Serbs based on a fraudulent claim of "500,000" Kosovars being "ethnically cleansed" with no UN consultation or approval and no US interest. Bubba even compared it to the "Holocaust" on TV. It turned out that a few thousand Kosovars were killed by the Serbs and almost the equal amount Serbs killed by the KLA who had been previously branded by the US as terrorists. The whole war was a scam by Clinton.

And you liberals want to prosecute so-called war crimes? Well if anything Bush did qualifies as a war crime, then this surely does:


And not just one bomb - the U.S. pilot was ordered to strike again to take out the bridge because the first strike only hit the train. But the second bomb didn't take out the bridge either - it again hit the train! It was a passenger train for gawd's sake!?!

I look forward to your congressional hearings...

lol... Ya know what's cool? I see a lots of idiots make this claim, but when I ask them to specifiy the war crimes to which they're referring, they never seem to be able to cite evidence of any crime having been committed by either Bush or Cheney...

Usually they cite the authorization to torture, but they can't cite a statute which limits the Exeuctive's authority to authorize water-boarding, or a statute which classifies water-boarding as torture.

Clearly you'll be no exception...

As for revolution, 25 percent is more than enough to fuel and man a revolution. That is 80 MILLION people. All it takes is about 3 million anyway.

The really sad thing about this isn't that they get off, of course that is bad enough, but that the next generation of crooks to take office will see what these crooks got away with and keep pushing that imperial envelope.
