But a Bush/Cheney prosecution would be mana from heaven to the right. That's why Democrats will never do it. They care a lot more about their agenda and personal futures than they do about what these two clowns did 10 years ago. It's time to give this up and move on to something else. Prosecuting Bush and Cheney would lead to a RW surge and possibly a RW sweep of the presidency and both houses of Congress. That's just not worth it to most liberals. It may feel good, but so does butter on a burn.
