Pelosi Open to Prosecution of Bush Administration Officials

[WillowTree]

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is receptive to the idea of prosecuting some Bush administration officials, while letting others who are accused of misdeeds leave office without prosecution, she told Chris Wallace in an interview on "FOX News Sunday."

"I think you look at each item and see what is a violation of the law and do we even have a right to ignore it," the California Democrat said. "And other things that are maybe time that is spent better looking to the future rather than to the past."

Rep. John Conyers, chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, announced Friday he wants to set up a commission to look into whether the Bush administration broke the law by taking the nation to war against Iraq and instituting aggressive anti-terror initiatives. The Michigan Democrat called for an "independent criminal probe into whether any laws were broken in connection with these activities

Great, let's waste millions of dollars for nothing while the economy is shit. Even if they convict these people of crimes, they won't serve any jailtime. Pelosi and Co. will just get the satisfaction of knowing they won a fight that costs us millions of dollars.

Fuck Nancy Pelosi. I hate the entire state of California for putting that bitch in office.

I think the emphasis should have been on the fact that the Speaker of the House disagrees with the President-Elect regarding tax cuts. There are fights brewing that may start on Wednesday. Egads, anyone noticing "The people are hurting out here?"

The Associated Press: Speaker Pelosi differs from Obama on taxes, probes

Speaker Pelosi differs from Obama on taxes, probes
By LIBBY QUAID – 1 hour ago

WASHINGTON (AP) — House Speaker Nancy Pelosi appears to differ from Barack Obama on at least two issues — tax increases and investigating the Bush administration.

But the two Democrats agree on the need to address the soaring cost of entitlements such as Social Security and Medicare.

The speaker said Sunday she wants Congress to consider repealing President George W. Bush's tax cuts on those who make more than $250,000 well before they expire at the end of 2010. Obama had promised to repeal the tax cuts as well during the presidential campaign, but he has since backed off that pledge, signaling he would be willing to simply let them expire.
"We had campaigned in saying what the Republican Congressional Budget Office told us: Nothing contributed more to the budget deficit than the tax cuts for the wealthiest people in America," Pelosi said in an interview broadcast Sunday.

The California Democrat is pushing the president-elect to make good on a campaign promise that attracted some of the harshest criticism during the election — that Obama is a typical tax-and-spend Democrat who would raise taxes once in office.

Obama has fought that label, emphasizing that any tax increase would be directed at those making more than $250,000. However, since the election, Obama has been reluctant even to raise taxes on people making that much....

Obama may have recognized that what he said two years ago, became a bad idea during the campaign, though that wasn't the time to backtrack. Since then he's made pretty clear that he understands that taxing the 'rich' will mean a loss of more jobs by small businesses. Will be interesting to see which prevails.

is that the same thing as a president?

Well the law was broken in taking our country to war with Iraq, because Congress never declared war on Iraq. However, you can't just blame Bush or his administration for that, you have to attribute much of the blame to Congress for failing to fulfill their responsibility. So if you prosecute Bush or his administration you must also prosecute Congress.

I don't understand the attitude that if Republicans wasted money trying to get Clinton then it's ok to waste money hunting Bush administration officials. If waste is wrong, isn't it always wrong?

Which activities is she referring to?

 

[Modbert]

blowjobs are wonderful. Lying about them to a grand jury is criminal.

And how much did it cost the taxpayer while the Right cheered them on? Funny enough, many of them continue to applaud those who went after Clinton today. Some even made a career out of it.

And I'm sure every state has vulgar homophobic bigots as you have clearly shown that Wisconsin has.

I guess you missed his acquittal. Funny, it was on live TV, every network.

Bush actually committed a wide range of proveable crimes. Clinton did not.

I know he was acquitted. The poster contended that the republicans went after clinton over a blowjob and that's not true.
