I wonder if criminal charges will ever be persued against Bush? It seems that they should, in the persuit of justice it would only be right for a child who throws a tantrum and demands all the other kids on the playground play with him to be punished in some way. A good grounding, say 25 years, for this particular tantrum would be permissable. HH

I would like to think so, but I don't think it will justice that will be the motive.
Revenge might be the do the trick, if only half the points in the article come to fruition then something might be done.It seems that America is prepared to forgive Bush on most everything but I don't think he will be forgiven for breaking America itself.

Very nice site. I have a feeling I will be spending several hours watching videos and such. That particular video makes one just want to cry. I would love to just snatch them out of there. This is so depressing. It is hard to imagine someone could watch this and still feel there is a just and good god. If a soccer mom prays to not get held up by a train and she doesnt, this is proof of god? I would be much more impressed if all of this injustice, suffering, hunger, death, and destruction were to be repaired. HH
