We will never learn.. [View all]

From Iran-Contra during the George Bush I administration through the war crimes committed by the GW Bush administration to the criminal we now have as president -- if at each juncture we the people had demanded justice - demanded that these criminal leaders and their minions be held accountable and answer for their crimes -perhaps we wouldn't be where we are now. Instead, we have politicians who think it best to "look forward, not back" and a congress that is too chicken-shitted to stand up and start impeachment proceedings. What has that gotten us? a failing democracy, that's what.
