The memos, released by Obama's Justice Department on Monday, outline possible methods for the president to ignore treaties and International laws, kidnap and torture American citizens and overrule the First Amendment to the Constitution which ensures freedom of speech and of the pressBush sure was trying hard to become Caesar.

I hope this results in a trial. There's a lesson here that future Presidents will learn, but what exactly that lesson is depends on whether or not he's punished for what he did.

I think Bush has done more than enough to justify a trial and conviction. These memos, while appearing quite damning, mean nothing. I personally have viewed many articles on growing marijuana, synthesizing LSD, manufacturing bombs, and making guns without ever attempting to do any of them.
Now IF they can prove that he utilized the information in the memos in a way that a court determines is illegal and/or unconstitutional, then we got something. We've got a bunch of scapegoats giving then President Bush bad advice.
