28. Personally I would not be involved in any way with War Criminals, no matter what the 'cause' was.

Not to mention that any 'cause' the Bushes have ever been involved in, has turned out, as the 'education' project for Katrina victims, eg, to be most profitable for THEM.

Corrupt, war criminals should be prosecuted.

I can't think of anything worse frankly, than for a country to be willing to move forward from massive War Crimes and then treat their war criminals as if they were elder statespersons. It is truly sickening when I think of all the victims, including our own soldiers.

AND maybe you will see not much wrong with this either, apparently it IS legal, Bush charged Veterans $100,000 to listen to him 'speak' this past week.

I guess we have very different views of what is okay morally for politicians assuming they care about people's opinions of them, or about right and wrong, to get involved in.
