I suspect that Obama has already assured Bush that Bush and his co-criminals have nothing to fear.

Of course, this is just the first mistake that Obama will make. He is, after all, just human. But I assure you, if I am correct in my assessment of Obama's situation and the extent of his desire to please, this is the mother of all mistakes.

Remember Clinton and how the right-wingers beat up on him mercilessly with the assistance of the press? The only way to prevent that kind of treatment of Obama is to come down very hard with criminal charges that keep the right-wingers' minds busy.

To restate an old fact, idle minds are the devil's workshop. That is certainly true of fanatic right-wingers. They will create all sorts of problems if allowed pompously to play the holier-than-thou card. They need to be relentlessly reminded of their dastardly deeds and the damage they have done to our country.

I have no problem with making peace and including reasonable people of all political points of view among Obama's counselors and discussion partners. But there is a dangerously partisan group in the Republican Party that would as soon destroy our country as to cooperate with a Democratic president. I hope that Obama recognizes just how vicious that segment of the Republican Party really is.
