DoJ was in court today defending Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Powell, Rice and Wolfowitz

"The DOJ claims that in planning and waging the Iraq War, ex-President Bush and key members of his Administration were acting within the legitimate scope of their employment and are thus immune from suit,” ...

snip

“We do not see how a Westfall Act certification is appropriate given that Ms. Saleh alleges that the conduct at issue began prior to these defendants even entering into office. I think the Nuremberg prosecutors, particularly American Chief Prosecutor Robert Jackson, would be surprised to learn that planning a war of aggression at a private non-profit, misleading a fearful public, and foregoing proper legal authorization somehow constitute lawful employment duties for the American president and his or her cabinet.”

25. Welcome to DU, cactusfractal!

Glad you're here. This SUCKS!!!!! I SOOOOOOOO want to see these bastards pay for their crimes! I don't want to leave it to history. I don't want to trust that it'll happen in the Here-After or whatever that might be. I WANT IT NOW. In public. For the world to see. So it can be a lesson to those who come later and expect to be able to perpetrate, and get away with, the same sins.

Awwwww...

The current DOJ pursuing this would open Obama admin officials up to prosecution.

Churchill, Stalin and Truman were never prosecuted for war crimes even though they did indeed commit horrific war crimes.

Lyndon Johnson prosecuted? Nope.

Sorry, but Bush admin officals will never be prosecuted.

The CIA and US military committed war crimes in Afghanistan when those drones targeted funerals. Still...there will be no prosecutions for those either.

10. Now, why aren't people screaming about this?

Why isn't this plastered all over the Internet and amplified by extreme outrage?

Because DU is a leader in forming opinion.

Because looking to the outside for opinion is dated opinion.

Because searching endlessly for opinion links reveals yesterday's opinion links.

Because what you read on DU today is plastered everywhere else a week from now.

Because outrage is formulated here and ripples out from here

Because the outrage must endure the information lag.


That is why.

 :rotf: :rotf: :rotf:

Well, the DUmbass is right about the "what you read on DU today is plastered everywhere else a week from now" part. It's plastered here, on the DUmmie Funnies, conservative talk shows, various e-mails, psychiatric case studies, etc., etc.

But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

Yet they can never cite any case law or crime, those people violated.
DUmmies, it's been gone over with a comb, by a libby DOJ, and they can't find anything.
Then-Chief Justice John Marshall observed, “Between a balanced republic and a democracy, the difference is like that between order and chaos.”

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”

The absence of evidence is proof of a cover-up - so as well as prosecuting them for their crimes (which cannot be defined because of the cover-up), then they should be prosecuted for the cover-up as well. /DUmmy mode.

We do not see how a Westfall Act certification is appropriate

Poor mike_c will be crushed.  That was his entire basis for saying that anyone who served in Iraq was guilty of war crimes and should be prosecuted.
The libs/dems of today are the Quislings of former years. The cowards who would vote a fraud into office in exchange for handouts from the devil.

This same "Logic" has been used by libs in the past to justify investigations with allegations, and no proof.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

“The national budget must be balanced. The public debt must be reduced; the arrogance of the authorities must be moderated and controlled. Payments to foreign governments must be reduced, if the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”

The democrats demanded not one but TWO votes to authorize the Iraq invasion. Both of those votes almost all of the donk senators voted for it.

As for proof of a crime, REPUBLICAN!!!!!!11111!!!!1elebinty

Disagreeing with The Cult of Leftism is enough to be killed.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

The title brings to mind our history.

The Liberals left Europe in droves to cross the Atlantic to a life style far from the Conservatives that they needed to escape from.

Months they spent at sea never knowing if they would ever reach land they could be free in. No government to tell one how to live,  and no one to come in and tax one for their benefit.  

Soon as they got ashore and built communities the misfits in the liberal community arose ,and set themselves from the other liberals.

These were the people that went to the rocky shore line with lanterns guided in the ships to crash against the Rocky shore line,  and pilfer anything they could get their hands on.  Many died looking for a dream home.

Libs today need to look at other libs to see what their agenda is, are they the honest people just looking for a home or are they the lantern waving people looking for others to sack and in rich themselves.

Any charges that would stick to President Bush, would stick to Obama like stink on sh*t.
