As a dissenting voice, I'd rather not see our government get in the
habit of criminalizing people who, just a few years earlier, were
basically listening to the government for cues on the legality of a
particular issue.
Fire them, yes - criminalize them... no. Criminalize the rats that
gave the order, sure, as they knew full well that, at the end of
the day, it was their order and their position of power that
dictates national policy at all levels. But we know the effects of
authority on people. While there should be consequences, the gross
weight of it sits... higher up.
That said, if we're roasting Cheney, I'll bring extra microbrews.
