Would Obama prosecute the Bush administration for torture?

Obama's brain trust wants to form a commission on torture and call Bush officials as witnesses, but put off prosecutions -- if any -- till a second term.

    "Prosecute the Bush administration...?"

    Name the names!

    -- GW Bush, War Criminal.

    -- Dick Cheney, War Criminal.

    -- Members of this current War Criminal administration of the USA.

    They certainly deserve to be impeached (all those impeachable) and they certainly deserve to be jailed (the whole sorry bunch of them, for the rest of their miserable lives)!

    Will such justice be done?

    I doubt it.

    -- GSC
