Human Rights Watch still wants to get George Bush -- In times of trouble, some take great comfort in nostalgia. Remember "Bush Lied, People Died" and "No Blood For Oil" and all that? Ahh, the good old days. Some people want to make that feeling last forever, as TheDC's Amanda Seitz reports: "Human Rights Watch is pressuring President Barack Obama to investigate and criminally prosecute former President George W. Bush and former Vice President Dick Cheney. The group says there is 'overwhelming evidence' that the Bush administration ordered the torture and abuse of various detainees. Its allegations are contained in a 107-page report. 'There are solid grounds to investigate Bush, Cheney, [Donald] Rumsfeld, and [CIA Director George] Tenet for authorizing torture and war crimes,' Human Rights Watch executive director Kenneth Roth wrote in a press release. 'President Obama has treated torture as an unfortunate policy choice rather than a crime.' The report asks other countries to prosecute Bush and several of his top aides (if the United States does not take legal action) for violating international law. 'The U.S. has a legal obligation to investigate these crimes,' Roth wrote in the statement. 'If the U.S. doesn’t act on them, other countries should.' The report also discredits the Bush administration's consultations with legal counsel over the permissibility of waterboarding and illegal detention, arguing that such precautions don’t lessen the severity of the crime." Yeah, Obama will get right on that, just as soon as he's done bragging about killing Bin Laden.Lefties are so cute when they're delusional.

Lefties won't take their own advice: Move On. If they do try to bring up a case against B/C, what's going to happen when the jackboot's on the other foot, Hmmmmmmm? Think Libya and Yemen and Gunwalker...
When California was poised to vote for a simple majority (50% plus one), a union member asked, "What happens if the other side (conservatives) get into power?" The union leader just looked dumbfounded, and another member said, "Then we get what we deserve."
Sam, lefties don't care about the possibility of the shoe being on the other foot. I really think they believe they will always be in charge.
