When it comes to this sort of thing I'm a moral absolutist. Not otherwise! But in this case, yes.

Don't care about Obama's motivation. If Bush committed war crimes - well, Hell, that's all there is, isn't it?

Of course the issue is... and i think this is Mafoo's worry...

Nothing will be done.

"Bush committed Warcrimes, was guilty of this crime that crime yadda yadda."

Then nothing will come of it.

Making it an expensive investigation that didn't put one person in jail.

Do you mean that it would be a-okay if the investigation carried the real and terrifying possibility of putting a large portion of Bush's staff (including the man himself) in prison for a while?

Man I thought that was what these investigations were about. Putting people in jail! For crimes!

Crime gets you put in jail!
