If Obama desires his recovery program to pass in the Congress, he might get better traction if he orders the DoJ to pursue the murderers. How many members of both Houses supported and funded the Iraq War?
Mr. Bush staged a bogus preemptive war [treason] that led to the wrongful deaths of 100's of thousands of human beings [mass murder].
There are those who say that capital punishment is not deterrence. I won't argue with this except to say that dead men rarely kill the living.
Bankers indulged in illegal toxic mortgage instruments almost guaranteed to blow up in the homeowner's face. Owing more than his home is worth is a personal tragedy. His only recourse is to leave the keys in the mailbox and to sleep in his car. It will become a national disaster in 2010 when 19 millions mortgagee families [half of that population] will sleep in cars.
The authorities might be tempted to use force to re-establish public order. Against similar numbers in Iraq, they failed miserably. A more sanguine approach would be to execute the bankers whose rapacious nature brought on the housing bubble. Then, the former owners and renters could return debt free to their abodes.
War Criminals Walk Among Us
Bush and Cheney deserve injection, no question. What happens to the tens of thousands of other war criminals complicit with the heinous regime? Should they continue as US Senators, CIA Agents, SEC Officials, army generals etc? We muffed it at Nuremberg sending 153,000 concentration camp workers home.
They survived to teach us the New World Order.
