Now would be the time for the DOJ to put the Bush/Cheney

trial for violating the Geneva Conventions on the table. Get the right wing so busy trying to fight the charges they won't have time to think about impeaching anybody. Many of them were involved in the whole nefarious deal.

1. What makes you think

a bunch of "our" people weren't? have a sort of intuition--can hardly even call it a suspicion--that a number of Dems were fellow travelers with the Bush Gang, and any investigation would prove an embarrassment to too many people. Big money wanted the war, & big money bribed both sides. Once in, there was nothing to be gained by looking too closely at the sausage machine.

2. All the more reason to pursue it. Get the bastards who

thought torturing a fellow human being was okay off the government payrolls. That would clean out a major rats nest as far as I'm concerned. NO congresscritter who went along with torturing people deserve a seat in congress. They're not even human.

3. I absolutely agree with your stance on anyone complicit with torture

torture. I agree that it SHOULD be pursued. I simply don't see how it would happen with the composition of the current House & Senate, especially the latter. Not only would such a measure not get the 60 votes necessary in the current environment, there are probably enough complicit Democrats to ensure that it wouldn't even get a majority.
