It is not the US Senate who should investigate Bush's activities but the TPI of the Haye for wars' crimes and crimes against Humanity. Cheney, Gates and all the wars' instigators: members of that Bush's administration must answer for their actions, from 1980 until the end of that shamefull presidency. This will allow America to be credible again, and to see once and for all if Obama is sincere or just a pawn manipulated by those greedy imperialist masters. This is not just an american problem but a Worldwide credibility's request. Sincerely...Jean-Claude Meslin
