At this point that's obviously off the table. Bush, Cheney, and lesser officials could conceivably be indicted for any crimes they committed while in office, however. <BR/><BR/>But I think we have to be careful to distinguish things like incompetence, nastiness, lying, and horrendously bad policy decisions from actual criminal behavior.
