They could wait until someone will actually prosecute them and no one will pardon them.

That's what really worries right-wingers, isn't it?  That the impeachment and pardon that they all thought was worse case scenario if they were caught committing war crimes, wasn't the worse case scenario after all.  That they might REALLY be punished.  That precident might be set that might make power hungry corporate puppets think twice about hijacking our country and trying to turn it to a neo-facism.  That despite trying to turn the Justice Department and Supreme Court into a partisan tool to ensure an effective one party system, a permanent majority, no because of that, they have lost all control that they had.

Ken, enjoy the rest of this year.  It may be the last time you get to witness your party in control of this country.  The people are tired of their corporate-government hybrid masters.

Sadly, this is not true (none / 0)

We will get about three decades or so of liberal control (more or less) then a decade of conflict then we'll be right back at 1980.

The people will forget this.  They always do.  Just yesterday or the day before bobo threw out that the Great Depression and WWII were partially FDR's fault and WWI was caused by Wilson and most people on here were ready to concede that.

We progressives will patch the country up and build it back to prosperity and the cons will come in with their bullshit made up issues (God, gays, guns, race, abortion, etc.), convince the forgetful bastards of the future they need to change course and it starts anew.

My fault, I could have been clearer (none / 0)
I intended to suggest within his lifetime.  Not wishing ill on Ken, but I don't think any of us can guarantee we'll be around in 30-40 years.

True (none / 0)

Many of us may never see the country turn to the right again. 

The rest of us may get to die watching it descend into conservative madness yet again.
