It's amazing that the Republican retardos are *still* trying to blame

It's all they have, baring the very few, like Colin Powell, who had the
balls to admit they were wrong and duped.

They keep claimng that smart Clinton duped dumb bush & sureshot ...
How dumb a defense is that?

Stupidity is its own reward. If that were the limit of
neocon/Republican failures I'd be fine with the result but collateral
damages have injured the entire nation. I want the movers and shakers
to punish those responsible for all to see, in a very public
environment, humiliate, broken and an icon for "representatives" to
ponder.

And I'd like to see what crimes you'd find to punish. I can't see many,

Treason

No chance. Treason requires undermining the government. They *are* the
government, duly elected. All you have there is a disagreement about the
distribution of powers. Debates about that don't win criminal cases; they
lead to Supreme Court cases that establish new precedent.

...lying to Congress

Prove that it wasn't priviledged and withheld information, protected by the
separation of powers. You won't be able to.

...violating their oath of office

Your opinion. You won't have a case.

...and corruption

Not likely, at the top administrative level.

off the top of my head.

And that's where it will stay. You're living a fantasy about how one can
prosecute a case at this level.

We're all angry at them, and it's natural to think they *should* be guilty
of some crime, but I doubt if there is anything prosecutable there.
