If the whole truth were revealed, would the neocons have time to escape?
If the whole, ugly, nasty, horrible truth about the neo cons could somehow suddenly be exposed and revealed and reported to the citizenry, would bush and his masters have enough time to escape to another nation for comfy exile, or to their giant, secret bunkers?

I know I'm living in a fantasy world, where criminals get their just rewards while still living, and receive rough justice for their atrocities.

Do you think in your wildest dreams that there may be some truth to this scenario? Do you think they have an escape plan for when the shit finally hits the fan?

No president has ever been arrested for anything that I know of, we seem to give them immunity to any crime, even genocide. bush and his masters will most likely never even have to appear in court for all their horrific crimes against the constitution and against the world. And that's sad.

1. I think they would eventually get away and they will get away with the
destruction they wrought. Part of the reason IMO other people hate us is because we can't seem to hold accountable our leaders when they make mistakes, but we are really quick to hold others.

2. The truth? We can't handle the truth! Well, most folks can't. You
could reveal it, and still the blind would not see.

11. Israelis suffered too
due to neocon policies. Apparently it was B*sh who spurred Olmert on to invade Lebanon (which didn't turn out to be the cakewalk they were told it would be).

5. I have little hope the NeoCONs will be punished and ultimately it is
our fault for being so soft and stupid and cowered by their name calling. Long ago they could have and should have been exposed.
And may I add we never insisted on real justice for Dallas, which had nothing to do with the NeoCONs but had alot to do with the right wing ReThuglicans who are now destroying the Republic.

9. Ask their old pal Ken Lay if they have an escape plan.
And if he says "no", don't believe him.

10. you answered the question
We don't have a functional accountability mechanism, or a functional judicial system for that matter. They won't need an escape plan. They'll just slink off...is my bet.

12. many are already unpunished Iran-Contra criminals
and were involved in Watergate and even JFK assassination before that ... is it too much to ask that those who have committed treason at least once not be allowed to serve in public office ever again, no matter what a-hole co-conspirating traitor like Bush Sr. or Reagan "pardons" them???
