Just watched "Fair Game" on television.

Someone tell me again why cheney and his guys aren't in a maximum security facility.

Someone tell me again why this administration didn't right the wrongs of that abomination of governing that was the bush administration.

1. i was told by a liberal lawyer, it is in the past. i told this lawyer, all crime is in the past

what makes it a crime.

[RKP5637]

3. Exactly! Well said! These crimes should not be ignored.

2. The fact that Bush/Cheney are not in jail makes me cry in frustration. nt.

[RKP5637]

5. It sets the precedent for a horrific future for this country. Crimes too big to punish.

8. no crime is too big to punish.. that is such a defeatest attitude, isn't it?

[RKP5637]

9. ... but what I'm saying is IMO it sets the precedent. It sends the message

that worse than Bush/Cheney can be empowered to do as they damn well please by precedent.

10. That this administration ducked its duty here

will be the legacy it leaves.

I think they did not go into cheney's office outing a valuable American spy is because of the reason they did the outing. If you show that the bush administration did this, then you have to know why - that bushco knew that there was no reason for the war, that tens of thousands of Iraqis and thousands of Americans died for no reason whatsoever. The administration is afraid to call to the minds of Americans that a president sent thousands to die for a lie. Instead of having five thousand heroes, you have five thousand victims. Not good campaign material.

bush lies and Obama cowardice. A bad combination.

15. "If" Bush/Cheney had been democrats, they would have been prosecuted

to the hilt, it never would have ended. ... instead, their acts have been ignored.

So much was destroyed by the Bush/Cheney regime that had at one time given America respect and admiration. ... but, the current administration said look forward, not backward, and I've always disagreed with that ... So much has been ignored, the wars, the financial mess, many treasonous acts IMO.

11. The Other Night I Watched Casino Jack (Abramoff).....

this is another one of those - that we know what's wrong with our system (lobbyists) and we still let the same tactics go on. It is very frustrating when one knows what the problems are with the system - but we overlook them and let them continue. More people should have gone to jail that were on the take from Abramoff. I intend to watch Fair Game as it's On Demand. I just haven't had the time to devote to it yet. I know, however, that I will be frustrated and upset after I watch it because certain people should have gone to jail and they were given a pass.

I met the real Joe Wilson in D.C. He was giving testimony about this incident to a House Committee. When they took a break because they had a vote - I briefly spoke with Mr. Wilson and he seemed confident at the time that the truth would come out and catch up with the real people that leaked.

12. It was really well done, IMO

Probably because the Wilsons were involved. But if you notice, Cheney had no part in the storyline. The blame seemed to be on Scooter, same as it turned out in real life.

13. Too busy prosecuting John Edwards, Don Siegelman and Blogajevich. First things first, you know.

Get rid of the most immediate political threats. Forget about the has-beens.

[Bombtrack]

14. Funny, all I took away from that movie was that Cindy Crawford had really nice boobs

to each his own I guess.

16. Did you have the TV on mute by chance? LOL
