Obama's plans for probing Bush torture

President Bush could pardon officials involved in brutal interrogations -- but he may also face a sweeping investigation under the new president.

    Impeach before January 20

    Starting an impeachment procedure before January 20th will strike terror into the hearts of the minority right-wing.

    Even if the impeachment fails, it sets the tone for dealings with the right-wing republicans and bring them to heel.

    We need a crushing Democratic majority to undo the damage of past 10 years of republican rule.

    Dems have been conditioned to behave like underdogs and bed republicans for votes even when the republicans are a minority.

    No More.

    Sue them, charge them, indict every single corrupt one and convict the guy who leaked valerie plame's ID.

    The Dems are now the government: with unlimited resources. Charge every single major republican starting with Karl Rove, Cheney, Bolton, Rumsfeld, Ashcroft and his stupid replacement.

    Indict them. And get them convicted.

    But leave Bush alone.

    Let him be lonely. Feel the loneliness and fear when his supporter afer supporter goes to jail.

    But never charge Bush with anything.

    Am not saying this of altruistic intentions.

    Not indicting or charging Bush is enough to keep the right-wing nut jobs down.
