Tomorrow, President Bush will visit our neighbor to the North. A coalition of anti-war protesters, left-wing lawyers and anti-capitalists have decided to protest the visit and have not ruled out violent protest. Some want to indict the President for War Crimes. And while Kate reminds folks of the consequences should such an action be successful, Cicada reminds Canadians that what's good enough for Bush may just be good enough for Chretien, and Clinton...

And it is hardly the case that Republicans can claim the moral high ground with regards to thwarting Presidential judicial nominations.
