Obama is disgusting. He doesn't want to prosecute the war criminals Bush and Cheney because he'd rather "look forward." The next time I commit a crime I'll just tell the judge that we need to look forward not backward. I'm sure that'll get me off the hook, right? After all, justice is blind.
Well we don't know this yet...he is leaving it up to his designated AG Eric Holder. We shall see what Holder is made of. Frankly if this admin gets away with all of this I will be most surprised. (But I have been disappointed before). Shit we have them admitting to torture. The case for the prosecution does not get any better than that. Obama's "base" will be all over this. Will he disappoint all?
