New York Sen. Charles Schumer said Sunday that he could support prosecution for Bush officials that participated in torture or broke other laws.
"If there are egregious cases, I don't think you can say, blanket, no prosecutions," Schumer told Fox's Chris Wallace Sunday morning. "If there are egregious cases, yes, you have to look at them."
Last Sunday on the same television show, Pelosi signaled that she's open to backing prosecutions of Bush administration officials, telling Wallace that "you look at each item and see what is a violation of the law..."
But Schumer was far from aggressive, repeating President Obama's comment earlier this month that "we should be looking forward, not backward."
So don't get your hopes up that justice will be done or that future officials will have any qualms about breaking the law because they know that in this country, justice prevails.
....but hey, do what you want....you will anyway.
