15. If you want to investigate or prosecute, PLS HELP with this initial hurdle:
Just got the following from The Pen. Unfortunately, critical links on their "Action Page" -- to Conyers' rec. and Cheney's gloat -- seem to have been taken down. Nonetheless, I've seen other info about this before, and I think it's critical. Please DO take action at the page link below; and if anyone can supply alternative sources for the dead-end links, pls do!

"One of the most important recommendations by John Conyers in his 487
page recent report "Reining In The Imperial Presidency" was to extend
the statute of limitations on the crimes of Bush and Cheney, to allow
a fair opportunity for them to be actually investigated by a real
prosecutor. Of course the Justice Department was entirely derelict in
enforcing the law as to them while they were still in office. To
fully preserve and protect the rule of law, the statute of
limitations must be extended now.

"And sure enough, just the other day Cheney was out there gloating
about how the statute of limitations was expiring on some of their
most egregious offenses. For example, the midnight putsch to
institute a regime of illegal wiretapping occurred in early March of
2004, not quite 5 years ago."
