I think a clear case can be found to prosecute Bush and his cronies on the first three.

He should be stopped before he gets to the forth.

1. I'd love to see Bush's ass dragged into the Hague. I'd love to

see that SOB on trial for the crimes he has committed. And I'd love to see Cheney, Rummy, et al, right there along with him. They deserve nothing less.

2. The first three have already been done by Bush

I hope to the Gods we stop him before he gets to #4.

3. CRIMES AGAINST NEW ORLEANS!!!

4. YES YES YES YES YES! CRIMES against HUMANITY!!!! nt

6. Oh, you are so right, my friend.

The despicable neglect of the gulf region, TO THIS DAY, by this administration, enrages me. You and all the other residens of that region DID NOT and DO NOT deserve the treatment you have gotten. :hug:

5. Fourth article

This would cover treatment of detainees in Bush's secret gulags.

7. Like the Beach Boys once said, "wouldn't it be nice"

But American presidents, fascist or Democrat, are Never held accountable for the wars they wage.
