4. Yes, the slience is deafening
and the lack of concern over what this man did is disturbing, to say the least.

5. Yeah, I like how you get to write books admitting war crimes
And the only consequence is fat checks from your publisher.

12. Rec'd ~
I wonder why anyone on DU would unrec this post. I thought I had seen everything here over the past two years, but to support Bush is just beyond the pale. Can Freepers sign up here and just unrec posts without posting any comments? I don't know how it works, but no Democrat I know would do anything but support the exposure of this criminal.

I see the Brits are getting sued by over one hundred victims of torture. Let's see if the victims can justice there.

But this won't go away, no matter how they try. In South America, it took 30 years to get justice. But the finally got it.
