Should Bush be tried for war crimes? And executed if guilty?

Question

This is kind of in repsonse to the ill-conceived Sheehan question, but really Bush has done 100X the Damage that Sheehan could dream of.

Bush has Tortured.
Bush lied us into a war.
Bush neglected Osama and Afghanistan.
Bush created record deficits.
Bush has SEVERLY neglected American domestic policy.
3000+ soldiers have died as a direct result of his incompetence.

This isn't Bashing or fantasy. This is the plain and simple truth.

Why isn't he held to account?

I believe if we had an honest media, his approval rating would be 10%.

We impeached Clinton for a BJ, yet this grossly incompetent man gets a free pass from people who DARE to call themselves patriots?

Pathetic.

You can have your own opinons, but not your own facts.

The facts remain: Bush is bad for America.

b9teamchief this member seems to ignore many facts. He is likely on drugs. This is evidenced by his/her inabilit to integrate facts into a conclusion.

These fallacies by the "right" wing are truly embarassing to our country.

Terence C. = clearly one of the biggest dipshits who ever learned to write. Not one fact or intelligent argument.

Answer 1

NO

Answer 2

You are so ignorant of the facts!

First, it was the Clinton administration that ignored Osama bin Laden and failed to pass along the information to the incoming Bush administration. Just ask Sandy Burglar. The documents he was trying to steal from the National Archive proved just that.

"3000+ soldiers", tragic, but in WWII at the Battle of the Bulge 60,000 American soldiers died.

"We impeached Clinton for a BJ" . . . Again, you are wrong. Bill Clinton was impeached for lying in a civil court proceeding. He was being sued for sexual harassment and lied about promiscuity and past behavior, which is material (that means important and relevant) in this type of trial.

Further, you wrote "You can have your own opinions, but not your own facts." Clearly you are the one with no facts!

The only thing you got right was when you signed your statement, "Pathetic". You are pathetic.
.

Update: The questioner Jimbo wrote “Terence C. = clearly one of the biggest dipshits who ever learned to write. Not one fact or intelligent argument." Obviously, Jimbo has not learned how to write or recognize the facts. His entire comment is full of false statements. I have already pointed out several and here is another . . . Jimbo wrote, "if we had an honest media, his [President Bush] approval rating would be 10%." Everyone knows the media is slanted toward the left. The the media does not report the whole truth but tries to inflame the general public against Bush by reporting half truths, incorrect context, and suppressing facts. In fact, if the media were honest (and unbiased) Bush's approval rating would be much higher.

Further, I challenge you to present fact or argument against any of the statements I have presented here. You can't.

It is your writings that are free from "fact or intelligent argument."

Answer 3

Not that it will change your mind, but here are the true facts of what you said:

Bush has not tortured anybody, nor has he given orders for the torturing of anybody. United States policy is not to engage in torture for any reason; if it happens, it will be stopped and the people responsible prosecuted. Or did you miss the whole Abu Ghraib scandal?

Bush didn't lie when he got us involved in the Iraq war. Even if he did, lying isn't a crime in any court unless you're under oath. Which he wasn't, by the way. Or did you miss the whole "I did not have sexual relations with that woman?" statement that Clinton made while he was under oath?

Bush was directly responsible for the overthrowing of the Taliban in Afghanistan, and he initiated the search for Osama bin Laden. Or did you miss the part of the 9/11 commission's report which stated that Bill Clinton was told by another nation that they could hand bin Laden over to him not once but twice?

Every sitting president in the past 20 years has "created a record deficit." The plain truth is that every year, the national deficit goes up - no matter who the president is. The deficit went up with Bush, it went up with Clinton, it went up with Bush Sr, and it will continue to go up. Or did you miss the last State of the Nation address by Bill Clinton?

Your statement that Bush has "severely neglected American domestic policy" is nothing more than your opinion. Or did you miss the record tax cuts that Bush enacted?

3,000K soldiers have died as a result of enemy action or accidents; Bush had no hand in their deaths and is by no means incompetent. Again, your personal opinion.

Clinton was impeached because he committed a crime while in office - something that Bush has not done - and that crime was perjury. Clinton lied under oath, and was impeached for it.

Your entire post is nothing more than your personal opinion and Bush-bashing; there isn't a single thread of truth in the entire thing.

And I don't think you have a clue as to what a "patriot" really is.

Answer 4

Bush will never be tried for war crimes in America. Period, dot, point. Some leftist fringe somewhere in the world may try him in absentia ... like they are talking about trying Donald Rumsfeld. It is all just gum flapping and will accomplish nothing.

This same thinking fringe would like to try Harry Truman (inabstentia and posthumously) for authorizing the dropping of two atomic bombs on Japan during WWII.

If America were a lesser power in the world perhaps a stronger power could impose its will on America by force and try Bush. But, it ain't, they can't and it'll never happen. Amen.

Answer 5

Well I think alot of the world agrees.

Worst still your government, and i have to say that because only the citizens of the USA can make a difference now.

Is busy remotely killing terrorism suspects (Somalia) instead of rounding them up, trying them and finding more int out.

Sadam probably deserved to be hung but there are mothers that deserved to hear why other crap happened out there.

Maybe he had much more to say about how the USA origionally funded him and needed to be silenced.

Oh I do hope I just started a conspiricy.

It certainly does seem strange that a BJ is worse than an unjust war.

You failed to mention that he has is allowing oil exploration in Alaska.

Remember OIL Operation Iraqi Freedom

Don't worry as soon as he's out hes probably only going to be in charge of a large company there.

Answer 6

searching at different previous solutions jogs my memory that those who shout loudest have the least to assert and the most to cover. The Iraqis that Saddam killed were oftentimes killed with the conivance and appoval of england and us of a, no longer that Britain has had an self reliant voice for years, and we killed many with the sanctions we imposed on Iraq, which the politicians knew and doubtless grow to be hoping stands out as the case, in order that that they could portray what were their murderous tyrant as now an self reliant murderous tyrant. attempt searching in the back of the headlines, a number of you.

Answer 7

i absolutely agree here .he should be tried for war crimes ,but not executed he should be sentenced to the final amount of dead soldiers once thats determined,so lets say 4000 give or take .in the history of america there has never been such a dispeicable president who ignores his own cabinet members,fires who ever stands against his policy(colin powell,and the recent generals ) he mind as well fire the whole cabinet.he does wha he wants,its a cowbow attitude he has ,well mr bush thats costing hard working taxpayers a billion dollars a week and so far 3000 lives.
who will stand up and walk into the white house and arrest you for war crimes?i live to see that day when america stands up and applies the law it didnt give saddam hussein.they say the iraqi gov sentenced him and hung him but who tryly controls that governenment?america(meaning bush and co)
what turned out to be an incursion into a foreign country to free its people from the grasp of a saddistic leader has become a quagmire you cant get out of mr bush .you should be arrested and sent to the war crimes court and stand trial on 3000 counts of manslaughter /murder and be found guilty and sentenced to life in prison,and america will have a chance to be freed and choose a good president.
yes bill clinton was impeached for a bj,but thats american law here bush should be tried according to international law otherwise he'll just get away scott free.i reiterate the question here:how come bush gets off free for the deaths of 3000 soldiers and clinton gets impeached?
and yes if there was such a thing as impartial media believe me the polls would be alot worse for you mr bush.
i wonder who will ever stand up to this bully,invading countries to spread democracy means pretty much imposing your beliefs on others no matter what .well thats just wrong.
i am not american,i am muslim it doesnt mean i hate america or americans some of yu folks are decent citizens of the world some of you arent thats just the same for islam it truly is a peaceful religion just misunderstood and misrepresented.america is getting a bad rap worldwide thanks to bush whoever wants to be a patriot and support bush well go ahead but i assure you do so knowing that everytime you turn on the t.v you wil see more of our fellow americans dead.you have a bad leader right now,a very powerful man thanks to the old congress ,he is making up his own laws as he goes and the sad thing is you all have another year to endure with him.the longer this war goes the closer the world thanks to this idiot is to nuclear war and eventual annhialation of the human race and eventual self destruction
the solution here folks:someone needs to stand up and arrest him for the sake of the whole world ,one man with so much power at his hands is on the verge of creating a nuclear war all by himself,all for what well to quote g.w"to spread freedom and democracy accross the region(mid-east)"well mr bush good luck on that and in the meanwhile folks god save us all from this man

i appreciate all comments good or bad
dont be offended folks its just my opinion that am stating based on realisation that this is happening and am speaking from a position of facts

Answer 8

I believe he and some others should stand trial at the World Court for Crimes Against Humanity, a court the US does not recognize, thanks to Bush. I feel he would easily be found guilty, but as the Court is in Europe, there is no Death Penalty. That suits me fine, I'm Canadian and we have not been executing for about 50 years.

Answer 9
