Time to put Republican criminal asses in jail

George W. Bush and his accomplices damaged this country like it's
never been damaged before.
And it's not just the phony war in Iraq or the torture memos that
justified waterboarding.
It's millions of missing emails and the constant use of executive
privilege and signing statements.
It's the secretive meetings with Enron and other energy executives and
the wholesale firing of federal prosecutors.
It's trying to get the president's personal attorney seated on the
Supreme Court and that despicable Alberto Gonzales sitting in front of
congressional investigators whining, "I don't remember, I don't know,
I...etc."
It's the domestic eavesdropping in violation of the FISA Court, the
rendition prisons, and the lying.
It's looking the other way while the City of New Orleans drowned and
its people were left to fend for themselves.
It's the violations of the Geneva Conventions, the soiling of our
international reputation and the shredding of the U.S. Constitution.
It's the handing over of $700 billion to the Wall Street fat cats last
fall, no questions asked.
Where is that money?
What was it used for?
It's the no-bid contracts to firms like Halliburton and Blackwater and
the shoddy construction and lack of oversight of reconstruction in
Iraq that cost American taxpayers untold billions.
If the Republicans were serious about restoring their reputation, they
would join the call for a special prosecutor to be appointed so that
at long last justice can be done.
It's too late for George W. Bush to resign the presidency.
But it's not too late to put the people responsible for this national
disgrace in prison.

Prosecute sins of Bush-Cheney era
By Jack Cafferty
CNN
It doesn't go away by itself.
Watergate "went away" when Richard Nixon resigned the presidency in
disgrace and left town never to be heard from in an official capacity
again.
The Bush presidency is thankfully over...but the damage he and ***
Cheney did continues to press on the nerve of the American people like
an impacted wisdom tooth.
And until the questions surrounding arguably the most arrogant and
perhaps most corrupt administration in our history are addressed, the
pain won't go away.
