[Peace-discuss] Fw: Support The Nadler Initiative Against The Planned Bush Blanket Pardons

[E. Wayne Johnson]

Interesting.

But note that Congress had good reason to Impeach Bush and go after his 
gang,
but they did not.

The most obvious reason why they did not go after Bush was that the 
opposition party wanted to retain
the Anti-constitutionally broadened Executive powers, and let the 
aspersions for doing that fall on Bush.

So what makes you think that all your cards and letters are going to 
make the opposition party go
after Bush now that the reins of government power are falling into their 
hands?  They have little
to gain by pursuing Bush at this point.
