The American People: "We want Bush Admin. abuses to investigated!"
Two-thirds of Americans favor investigating whether the George W. Bush administration overstepped legal boundaries in its "war on terror," according to a poll released Thursday by USA Today and Gallup.

A majority of respondents said a probe should be launched into allegations that the Bush team used torture to interrogate terror suspects.

Investigators also should look into the former president's program of wiretapping US citizens without first securing court-issued warrants, respondents said.

About four respondents in 10 polled by USA Today (38 percent) favored criminal investigations, while about a quarter (24 percent) said they want an investigation without criminal charges being filed.

Hey Congress and President Obama, are you listening to the American People?

8. Imagine what those numbers would be if U.S. citizens had more information.
We'd have to rebuild the inaugural stage to hold the hangings.
