It seems obvious that this American President, conciously and unconciously, is trying to hurt United States.
It would be apprepriate I think to start calling him the First Anti-American President.
I’m kinda torn on this. I don’t think waterboarding is torture and frankly think these methods should be used when deemed necessary to protect American lives. So on one hand it would be a travesty to see good people subject to a partisan witch-hunt by the likes of Patrick “FY” Leahy, on the other hand it would probably divide the nation and infuriate and unite a large enough segment of the population to put an end to Obama’s popularity and presidency.
I think O needs to go for it. This to me will be a direct attack on our troops. Bsuh and Cheney did the best thing to protect Americans, not Hussein boosses in Mecca/Medina. They also did things to protect our troops. I say go for it Obama.
Attorney Dr. Edwin Vieira said if Obama charges any person under criminal law signed by him - the accused can demand his BC and NBC. The judge will have to force Obama to couch up his birth certificate. Maybe not because the law and Constitution appear to be meaningless anymore.
The question then is would Cheney or Bush be able to demand a copy of the B or proof of NBC which we know he does not have as far as NBC.
Some “defending” of Constitution!
More like treason!!!
“..... and unite a large enough segment of the population to put an end to Obamas popularity and presidency.”
Count on it.
If they indict republicans they need to indict Pelosi as an accessory. That commie witch was briefed and had no problem with it at the time and also did nothing to stop it. She is just as complicit if the commie scum rats want to go down this road.
Can’t believe it will ever happen.
Recall when Proxmire was under investigation for sex harassment, he had his “diary” - Clinton, with Lewinsky, “outed” his oppostition.
There is likely so much here that would spill out that would implicate the entire DC oligarchy, they’ll grandstand now, but uttimately- punt.
You know, the funny thing is that this can work both ways.
Prosecutors should be put on notice that they may be tried for treason by the next administration.
This is how banana republics operate. Welcome to the People’s Republic of Amerikanistan.
Let him try. We’ll prosecute him in kind for treason.
If he tries this, the chosen one will be arrested the day he leaves office. What goes around comes around.
If they go after the lawyers, they will have to go after all those inthe Congress who were briefed fully and said and did nothing, This includes Nancy Pelosi, Jay Rockefeller, Jane Harmon among the Democrats (as well as Peter Goss, and probably Pete Hoekstra).
Levin was on fire on this today,says if they go forward,it will getvery nasty....for Democrats.
Under what law can you prosecute someone for giving a legal opinion?
I believe Obama is just posturing to placate Soros and his idiot buddies at moveon. All talk no action is my read here.
Yep.
WRONG
The pattern is emerging. First the administration releases enough info to ignite a controversy...like AIG or the "torture" memos.
When the right counters with evidence that shows this is a false scandal, the administration releases another dose to incite the leftwing mobs into taking action themselves.
We now see last night the release of more photos showing prisoner "abuse". This is the signal that will will mobilize ACORN.
Once the perceived public outcry is so large, Obama will relent and allow investigations that will take years....years of distraction and years of "Bush is Evil" that absolves Obama from any potential sins.
It would be apprepriate I think to start calling him the First Anti-American President.
Accurate, just not (IMHO) appropriate. People just don't absorb that.IMHO it is necessary to find a way to express the reality which is illustrative of what it means to the average voter in concrete terms. "Anti capitalist" is a similar term to "anti American," and it suffers from the same defect that the "skulls full of mush" do not instinctively relate to capitalism. The Democrats talk about "free health care" and Hillary in particular talked about "quality" health care - but socialism is in fact a war on quality.
Socialism promises free goodies. But while the socialists are busy grabbing all the credit for the work of the doctors &c who are expected to continue providing the goodies, the people whose labor is expropriated naturally do less of it, land stop trying to improve their work. It is not even necessary for them to actively try to do worse than previously; once people stop trying to improve the inevitable result is deterioration.
Nobody likes to pay more than they have to, since nobody thinks they have too much money to begin with. And for that very reason, money is a very sincere form of giving people credit for what they do for you. When you give up the ability to pay people for their services, you are giving up the ability to reward good work. So if you get something for free, your opinion about the quality of whatever you got is of no real significance to the provider thereof.
And since the socialist promotes equality, the only way to prevent you from getting better than the next guy is to prevent you from paying more than the next guy - assuring that you get no better than he does even if you have a specific need or desire for quality that the other fellow simply doesn't care one way or the other about.
[Trying To Prosecute The Bush Administration For “Torture” Would Be Extremely Dangerous ]
Perhaps down the road the Obama Administration could be prosecuted for treason. Ya think?
