Subject: RE: BS: Immediate vs phased withdrawal from Iraq
Little Hawk: The frustrating part is no one in our Executive Branch is subject to civil or criminal punishment for his or her decisions. As a former federal law enforcement officer, if I made a spur of the moment bad decision or if I violated someone's rights I would have lost my job. I could have been sued civilly or gone to jail if it was a criminal case against me.

The people in the Bush Administration simply need to be punished so future presidents do not take similar actions. There must be deterrents for irresponsible decisions than cause such completely unjustified death and destruction.

Our federal government needs overhauling from the ground up in areas that involve abuse of power.
