We haven't heard from George W. Bush in such a long time I thought he was in hiding to avoid the WAR CRIMES PROSECUTION discussions. Now that he has surfaced, perhaps all the talk about him can cease and the proper court can try him and alledged accomplices of war crimes and put the matter to rest. He is either guilty, or not guilty. In any case, justice needs to be served. A lot of people have died and been mutilated and otherwise dehumanized. He needs to be a real man and answer up for what he did while in office. It is the least he can do, when many young, brave men and women have died carrying out his policies. This is not a Banana Republic, it is America.

Bush was a war criminal and a tyrant driven by the greed for oil, banking and drugs control, he is a war ciminal and a mass murderer, his oppressive purges in Iraq and Afghanistan have brought immense suffering to the people there. His history will not be re-written, as is the fashion today in Europe. Just the suffering and evil from of his reign should be documented, how many widows, orphans, maimed and dsabled will be interviewed to get the picture straight Virgina. When will the world have mission complete with this flesh eating monster behind bars.

If Bush already has US$200 million for his "library", who donated it? That buys a lot of history books and journal articles. I think there is a real danger that the same evil men who were behind him in the past 8 years are prepared now to rewrite history. Has everybody been saving news articles to off-line storage? I would not be surprised to see the negative ones about Bush just "disappear" in the next couple of years. This could end up being a big war between historians. Bush already knows that if he tells lies loud enough and long enough, that people will just "accept" what he says because they get tired of arguing with him.

I am a mini-historian. I like the idea of an oral history. Youtube.com will benefit. The world will benefit. Let's be fair. W. will be able to defend himself, with or without staff and contributions, I hope. Let's be fair.

The American mainstream media has gotten it sooo wrong so far. Bush is now more popular than Obama. Bush was neither a true conservative or a true capitalist. However, Obama after putting up a facade is starting to come clean, he absolutely is not moderate in politics and not a capitalist.. As the Soviet Union went bankrupt competing against U.S. weapons, the U.S. is now attempting to bankrupt itself over the global warming lie....

Count Cash and Hiding are typical screeching,whining liberals that wouldn't give W a break if he'd just saved their ungrateful butts. Obama couldn't carry Bushes gym bag. Bush kept America safe for 8 yrs., a condition, that sad to say, is much in doubt re. President Pantywaist. Obama will go past Bush like he's parked in the race for the worst presidency ever,he'll even pass Carter in that pursuit,and I thought that no one could ever pass Carter for the worst presidency. The people will ultimately decide that question and the Dems are going to get their collective hats handed to them in the fall and I wish it was tomorrow before he spends us into oblivion.

Harv, Even from an American perspective, Bush didn't manage to keep 3000 Americans safe on his watch did he! They fell from the sky. Then he followed up with another 4000 US killed abroad, just for good measure! Wow 7000 dead on his watch! Everyone feeling safe? So I make it after the first period 7000 to zero in favour of Obama, that's a fact! But of course I don't know how many CIA ghost goals you are counting! But then again we are in a real game here, not a made up one! I suppose you just need oil your thinking, and it might come out OK.
