Could George W. Bush end up behind bars?

(CNN) -- Could George W. Bush or some of his top aides end up behind bars?

It's extremely unlikely, but the Obama administration is taking its first steps along a path that could lead in that direction, with the investigation of Central Intelligence Agency interrogators involved in the war on terror.

"You don't know where these things are going to end up," former CIA agent Peter Brookes told me. "They could go to very high levels in the government."

The probe will focus on whether interrogators exceeded their instructions and broke the law when, for example, they choked a prisoner until he lost consciousness or threatened another one with a gun and a power drill.

With apologies to the Doors when they sang about the Leftist “revolution” of the late 60s and early 70s.

This is about the current revolution: “Five to one baby,one in five,
No Fed fascist gets out alive,
You've got yours Obama,leave me mine,
Gonna mess you up you cross the line.
The young get old and the old get stronger,
May take til 2010 or two years longer,
You've got the guns but we got guns and numbers,
Gonna win yeah,we'll take over.”

Your Marxist days are over Obama,good men closing near,
American patriots out to kick your rear,
You walk across the floor with your race card in your hand,try to tell us no-one understands,
Trade in your soul for a handful of jive,
Your gonna crash big,no more lies!”

Would Texas give up Bush to Obama? I think they would break away from the Union first.

Governor Rick Perry will go ahead and get Texas out of the Union without a doubt.

“I doubt America’s Army would fire on the American people.”

Army? Forget the army. There are a great many people who are exactly as angry and delusional as is Obama and THEY will rise up against any force or group they see as unfairly thwarting the messiah.

“You know, I’d love to see them try...oh please...oh please...make my day.”

If the Kenyan attempts to put W on trial for trumped up torture charges, whites will riot.

I know I will.

Julius Streicher, publisher of Der Stürmer newspaper, found out the hard way that Nazi propagandists also suffer consequences. Take heed, CNN worms. You are not immune to charges of sedition and the appropriate legal punishment. We’ll probably hang you alphabetically. First ABC, second is Atlanta Constitution, next CBS, then comes CNN...

When one starts out with the leftish premise that the President was not authorized to make war our enemies, then every action becomes illegal. If one goes beyond that and assume that the President is a usurper, then every breathe he takes is to be judged negatively. So the left thinks about Bush.

And the feeding frenzy on the left ratchets up a couple of notches, fed by the nearly bankrupt lame stream media.

Not to nit pick, but standing in front of Cheney while he’s holding a loaded shotgun might not be the smartest thing to do.

"First ABC, second is Atlanta Constitution, next CBS, then comes CNN..."

I'm sorry. But, I just couldn't support any charges of treason and sedition that didn't first start with the Editorial staff of the New York Times.

“Torture” to me is the infliction of extreme pain or permanent physical damage. Everything else is fair game.
