I think any Accountability for these last eight years will have to come from outside sources.

I think any Accountability for these last eight years will have to come from outside sources.
I mean people or organizations such as us. Government will not persue accountability, it would be seen as a partisan attack and not justice. Obama and his people are doing everything they can think of to eliminate the tag partisan to anything they are about. It is going to take someone filing Civil suits or actually pressing for Criminal charges if they can produce evidence that is irrefutable..If America desires accountability it will have to be sought after by Americans other than elected officials. It is a shame but I don't think there will be any retribution for all they have done to America and other countries. They will get off free as a bird and well enriched for their efforts. It will show our Children how it is supposed to be done. When you loot, don't settle for thousands, go for trillions.....When you kill don't just kill a few go for "Shock and Awe"

2. I agree
Hell, these people learned HOW to do the looting in the 60's and 70's during vietnam and Nixon. They were never properly punished. Cheney was there, Rumsfeld was there, Bush I was there. Now they are back, wreaking havoc once again. It's all the same actors, and we wonder why the same thing happened...

4. the same criminals do the same crime over and over again
I do hope if our government does not hold these criminals accountable some other country will, cause I really do not think no one will go after these thugs.

7. Yep, if no one holds them accountable then 30 years from now
their children or other such insane people will be right back in power trying the same things these folks did, twice. It's a damn shame really...

6. Sufficient unto the day
is the evil thereof.

Little is accomplished by prosecuting former Presidents except further polarizing the country. Given the serious polarization already in place, no more is needed if we are to rebuild our economy and regain the respect of the rest of the world.

GWB will fade into the past. I imagine he will be a former President who is seldom heard from.
