Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, etc. should have been prosecuted for war crimes. Banksters should be prosecuted for crimes at least to the degree that they were prosecuted for S&L crimes under Reagan. NSA wrongdoers should be prosecuted for their crimes too.

Incentives for crooks to run our government and squashing any incentive for those of us who demand American style justice to stop this corruption! Not what most Americans want! If they think this is a strategy for building wins for 2014, 2016, and longer, they are completely deluded. Unless they think that in whatever governmental system we are "looking forward" to then that our vote then won't count anyway.
