:hi:

As much as I'd love to see Bush and Cheney prosecuted, I just read here this past weekend that Obama has/had Kissinger working in his inner circle. After reading that, there's no chance Bush and Cheney will be prosecuted. :(

4. Hell, as more and more information comes out I think the American people...

[Ichingcarpenter]

5. Agreed...... Bob what week are we on?

I always nominate these threads.

[bobthedrummer]

14. I don't know, this is an ongoing thing-have you contacted Congress?

There are a few leaders that weren't complicit and several fired-up freshmen.
I don't care how long this takes. I don't know what week it is aside from President Obama taking office.

34. Yesterday I watched the movie - Judgment at Nuremberg.

War criminals must be brought to justice - no matter what the crime.

It was just so creepy how the Nazi soldiers said they did what they did "to protect their country".

Isn't that what it always comes down to? A Megalomaniac in charge and stupid people that are willing to be brainwashed?

[specimenfred1984]

35. Check! Torture, wiretapping, outing CIA, conspiracy to commit war

Election tampering, altering science, illegal hiring, no-bid contracts, looting the treasury, illegal propaganda, no-fly lists, gag ordering librarians, arresting protesters, assassination, cover-ups, retaliation, etc...etc...etc...

[chknltl]

46. Oh God YES!!!!!!

A thousand shoes to our own heads if we don't at least make the effort to bring to justice the monsters who were directly responsible for perhaps a million deaths and who knows how many kidnappings and torturings and to those who we can blame for the spread of depleted uranium oxide throughout the middle east and for the countless refugees from Iraq and for all of that pain and suffering!

Why oh why do I reflect upon the citizen's of Germany back in 1945 who were made to walk through those death camps in order to fully appreciate what had been done by their government. Instead of shame for what was done by our government in our name, most of my countrymen have other concerns....

How can this be prevented from ever again happening if we chose to ignore it now?

A thousand shoes to our heads indeed!

[southerncrone]

47. WE cannot let up. Keep the pressure on to DEEPLY investigate them.

It's a matter of democracy & humanity.

69. This is

a no brainer - criminals should be held accountable... These people should be in prison and the world community knows this. I do not predict any of them tasking a European vacation... ever.

K&R

[tclambert]

70. I'm beginning to suspect Obama has a plan for this.

But it involves waiting until certain core programs are passed. Then maybe this fall, or early next year, "It's clobberin' time!"

Just a feeling.

[bobthedrummer]

99. It's coming eventually. It's palpable.

75. We, The People, cannot let this issue die! Go DU!!!

[NMMOM]

76. Me too!

We need to keep calling our Congressmen/women until they listen to We The People. Ask them to support Senator Leahy. I believe he's got more clout than most and has the fortitude and b-lls to follow through with his call for an independent commision. Thanks all.

[Greybnk48]

77. I haven't checked in for a while, but I'm with ya.

[Baby Snooks]

78. It will not happen...

Barack Obama condemned the policies of the Bush administration during his inaugural address. And then turns around and ensures the policies continue. Time for people to finally open their eyes.

These are the same policies that would be used as the basis for criminal prosecution. So now Barack Obama would be tried as well. And you think that will happen? You think you can only prosecute the ones you want to prosecute and ignore the others? You think you can prosecute both Bushes without prosecuting Bill Clinton? Bill Clinton continued the policies of George HW Bush just as Barack Obama is continuing the policies of George W Bush. And the policies of George HW Bush are what led us to where we are. And turned us into the shameful nation we have become.

You need to look back on the reality of Nuremberg - an entire nation was prosecuted. Not just some.

Dick Cheney tells the Republicans that Barack Obama is inviting another terrorist attack by reversing the policies of George W Bush, which he claims have kept us safe, and the Republicans don't realize that Barack Obama so far has not changed the policies but instead seems intent on continuing them and so if we are attacked, well, they will blame Barack Obama. Of course the Democrats don't realize it either. And some of them will blame Barack Obama as well.

This country has been divided along many lines. Mainly the partisan lines. In reality, there is only one party in Washington now. And it does not serve the people.

We are not safe. And our greatest enemy is within. All you need to do to realize that is to remember what happened on 9/11 which if nothing else was allowed to happen because it fit into the agenda of this one party. Which seeks dominion in the world. Which is why at one point those who believed in the ideology were called dominionists.

Some would say the dominionists, they never act alone, participated in it which few could actually even consider because it was so horrific a thought until the revelations about Princess Haifa were revealed during the investigation of Riggs Bank.

While we listened to George W Bush call for prosecution of those who support terrorism, Princess Haifa and Prince Bandar were whisked away to safety. Just as the bin Laden family was. Including two sons-in-law who had been convicted in Jordan of terroristic activity.

How about some extraordinary rendition with Princess Haifa? Lets kidnap her and fly her off somewhere and then torture her and find the truth.

The reality is that everyone but the American people knows the truth and has known it for a long time. And they do not want us to know the truth.

How about it Mr. President? You want to keep the policy of extraordinary rendition in place? Then let's kidnap Princes Haifa and fly her off somewhere and then torture her and find out who directed her to send those checks to California which was used to fund the hijackers who hijacked those planes and flew them into the World Trade Center towers and into the Pentagon and killed thousands of Americans on American soil on 9/11.

Or do you plan to tell us without telling us, the way Bill Clinton did, that we need to just "move on?"

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

79. Yay! Another "I Want Attention And Lots Of Recs But Have Nothing More To Say!" Thread!

:rofl:

[orbitalman]

80. Not everyone is as VERBOSE as you!!!!

by a nothing more to say.

[bobthedrummer]

98. You are the only member to make such an absurd allegation, but given our history together that's

understandable.
:silly:

[orbitalman]

81. Waiting more than 8 years ...

with every thread of my being.

[tavalon]

82. Yep, I would like to see an international war crimes tribunal.

[orbitalman]

83. Duplicate

[Torn_Scorned_Ignored]

84. Copy that.

[Old Codger]

85. Looking more like

Business as usual , despite all the campaign talk and wonderful promises it is beginning to look like that is what it was, campaign promises, when it gets down to reality it is politics as usual, a lot of lip service but no real move to do anything about any of the crimes. A willingness to bend his own rules when it comes down to the nitty gritties. Full openness and disclosure and sunshine time before signing anything didn't even last the first 14 days. same old same old... differences in name only.

[guyton]

86. There must be accountability or we are all guilty -- every one of us.

Lest we forget, the buck doesn't stop at W's door. Every one that voted for the Iraq war is guilty of a war crime. And no, I'm not kidding. Being afraid of someone isn't an excuse for killing them, and being scared of Iraq was never a valid excuse for invasion.

Let's get this show on the road.

[windoe]

97. Upside down justice

Police crack down on citizens for minor infractions, routinely invade private homes with no warrant, ect. The legitimacy of torture is actually being debated.

Uber rich get away with pillaging, murder and mass destruction. The more impoverished and downtrodden the masses become, the more justified and paranoid the criminals become in defending their booty....it is a vicious cycle, and it needs to be nipped in the bud.

The longer we tolerate this, it will become the norm, fewer and fewer people will remember what the original idea of justice meant at all, and I think this is deliberate.

[burrowowl]

101. Damn tooting!

Prosecute all of Bu$hCo!
