re: #304 Max D. Reinhardt

I don’t recall electing the justices in the Hague to be the arbiters of government morality, and I’m not feeding my former president to those Europeans. (They’ve been yearning to tear him for years.)

re: #306 reine.de.tout

Thank you. I agree.
They’d soon be trying every President as soon as he left office.

I’d have to agree with this, with conditions. If President Bush, Vice President Cheney, or any of their staff were confronted with solid, watertight evidence of breaking the law in an American court, I could accept that. I wouldn’t like it, because I think it might cause a crisis of conscience in the American body politic, worse that Nixon and Watergate, but the law is the law and no one, even the POTUS or VPOTUS should be above it.

However, I would be very uneasy about the POTUS, any POTUS, being made to stand trial at the Hague or anywhere else overseas…it’s just bad news, IMO.
