Once more proving that he is not a man, but instead, is a rich diaper-wearing mamma's boy, George Bush passes a bill that will give himself and his entire white house administration retroactive immunity against prosecution for possible war crimes! Don't you wish we could all do that? [1:53]

If a president can pardon himself, I imagine Nixon would have done it before he resigned.
Even if it did pass, the US could sign up to join the International Court of Justice, and have Bush tried there.
Wouldn't that be fun. :-)
