After 2008

[SeaBob]

I have a question. Can this gang of psychotic simple minded twits now running our government be prosecuted for crimes while they were in office? (in case impeachment doesnt work)

[Voltaire]

1. Let's hope so

because if we don't jail these people as a deterrent to any other politician who wants to go down the same path, then we have wasted our time. I want jails FULL of Republicans and Corporate types.

run retirement homes. If ya know what I mean.

3. Intresting Point in a question

The congress looked into prosecuting Nixon and he would have been had he not resigned. Gerald Ford as president replacing an almost impeached Nixon pardoned the former president and Nixon himself. At that time the president had the executive powers to do that.If however Nixon had lingered in denial congress will have had that power removed from the president.This with reguards to the congress stripping the president of powers. This is indeed the reason this election is important,you see the Nixon croneys are back and the Bush people brought them back, not just to get even, but to regain presidential powers. And even srtip the constituation.To finish them it is all and important for the congress to finish it,meaning that which was started 1974.The congress never got around to taking the president,s power away ,declaring war without going to congress, or having the permission of congress. This is most important as you can see because of Bush,and those of that type.The 9/11 attack situation clearly showed the people will rally round the president at such a time, the president doesn any longer require supreame power there.The nuclear age has changed all that. It takes the very best this counrty has to offer to run the show. It is time for the war lords to take the back seat to power.The twenty first century commands that and no less.

4. Not if they're still in control of the Government.

I pray that doesn't happen, but I have to be cautious. Who knew that he'd still be off scott free after the 7 minutes while we were under attack, much less all the other shit they pulled. I do not rule out the declaration of martial law, and unending dictatorial powers by these guys. Does anyone really think they're just going to say "Well thanks for letting us gut your country for 8 years. Now we'll ride off into the sunset."? Not me. They're playing for keeps...permanently.
