I do wish people would get used to the term Republicrat. That is what a growing number of Democrats are becoming. Joining the Republicans who have become Republicrats. Ain't "bipartisanship" grand? The problem is it doesn't really exist. We really only have one party in Washington.
Of the people. By the people. For the people. The people don't matter.
We cry out for a Nuremberg. It will never happen. Too many have been too complicit. In both parties. In the one party.
The General Assembly could approve a resolution calling for the International Criminal Court to try the United States for war crimes. The problem is all it takes is one vote by one member of the Security Council to veto a resolution by the General Assembly. And it might not be the United States that would veto. Which would save everyone further the condemnation that would result if the United States used its veto to block its own trial. So Great Britain would veto it. To save itself as well as the United States.
That leaves the Justice Department. The Justice Department is not going to charge a former president for matters that Congress was aware of and that Congress could have at least filed for impeachment over.
Bush will leave tomorrow, accompanied by his father, and both will be shooting the bird at everyone as they leave.
There will be no Nuremberg. There will be no justice. There will only be history. And history will not be kind to the Bushes. Or to the American people. We were such good Germans.
