    I remember hoping that Obama would prosecute Bush for all of his crimes, in hindsight it was really naive.

          Is lying about “weapons of mass destruction” in order to convince the country to invade another so the dickbag trio could get more wealthy legal? Cheney, Rumsfield and Bush agree I guess.

          Free speech and all would make lying legal, so I guess you’re right… Lawful evil it is then :/

          Trump is just a Captain Planet villain cosplayer.

          FTFY.

          Trump is simply not competent enough and never has been.

          Bush wasn’t evil. He was a good man but in over his head. His entire cabinet was evil men that knew exactly what they were doing and they largely called all the shots

            Why are you doing Bush apologia? He’s the one who appointed all those evil men and let them do evil stuff, which he did because he’s evil.

              Because he was a puppet for his father. Blaming Bush for Cheneys actions does nothing but absolve Cheney and the other war criminals in his cabinet.

                That’s like saying that you can’t hold Hitler responsible for war crimes or you’re just absolving Goebbels. Bush, Cheney, and all the rest of them are all war criminals who deserve the most severe legal punishment there is.

        Right? I hate that phrase as it’s used here. How are we supposed to move on when national traumas are left unresolved?
