In today's news, Obama's justice department has decided not to prosecute anyone for the murders of CIA detainees under Bush. Also, he's doing better in the polls, seems people think he's "likeable"
The prisoners would have been better off being shot in the head on the battlefields of war?"What would you rather receive, a quick death or prolonged imprisonment and torture?
Simple fact relative to the toon, had “O”, “done the right thing”, Cheney and “W” would have had to have been sent to the Hague, AFTER being prosecuted for crimes committed against U.S. laws. It’s also why Pelosi said “impeachment is off the table”.
Obama’s biggest mistake was not arresting Bush/Cheney when he took office. now the Reeps think it’s OK to start needless wars and give tax breaks to rich people who don’t need them.
“So, where in the world does a true democracy exist?”Animal Farm, for one election only. Then the pigs took over & sold out the other critters to The Man.
“It’s not what the prisoners ‘rather’ but getting information from them.”It’s been long shown you can’t extract reliable information from torture. Put anyone under enough duress and they’ll tell you exact;u what you want to hear whether or not it’s true. You can make someone confess to kidnapping the Lindbergh baby, but how does that false information help you?

Good thing President Obama didn’t forget about obl, like the group occupying the White House before him.

And yet most of the damage is being done by the left and most of the nuts belong to the liberals and the democratic national socialist party.

That’s Republican Lite for you: less filling, tastes great.
You just have to watch out for that ferociously bitter aftertaste.

Still, the bottom line remains that Obama is less unlikeable than Romney. Sigh. It’s a heck of an election when one has to support the best bad apple.
