I’ve read so much of this, “They would have tortured, they did torture, so why are we worried about our guys torturing them?” it makes me want to puke. Wrong is wrong, whoever does it, for whatever reason, and there is no excuse for it, EVER. There is evil in the world; to deny that is pure idiocy. To emulate it or even to excuse it is pure evil, as it was the first time around.

If Obama wants to start a witch hunt, why doesn’t he start with himself and his birth certificate and be honest about it.

So many people think that Bush-Cheney violated the law. How did they come to that conclusion? Was it the left-wing liberal media? Was it Michael Moore? Was it George Soros? Come on guys! Just because someone who disagrees with a president says that he did something illegal doesn’t make it so. Have we all forgot how to think for ourselves? I didn’t vote for Obama; but, I hope he succeeds in turning our economy around. When he does something I disagree with, I’ll refrain from ridiculous name calling and false accusations such as Bush received. If I disagree with Obama, I’ll use facts to “respectfully” express my disagreement. Wow! What a unique concept!

So when do we get to go after women who have abortions and the doctors that commit them. Hey, an abortions takes a life. That is a medical fact that the medical community is aware of and that had been proven beyond a shadow of a doubt. So…you want to go after Bush, et al who wnet after the scum that were hurting and killing hundreds of thousands in Iran as well as our own sholdiers? So be it. But us “righties” will make sure the abortion supporters as well as the “Pro Choicers” are prosecuted in a court of law as well.

You stupid, stupid people. CHANGE! Yeah right, whatever. Bush and co. walk, even after rendering what was left of the Constitution useless in such blinding and obvious ways. What do you think Obama is going to do? ‘Clean up government?’ Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.

Help us world, our new “Jesus” needs disciples.

So many people have suffered and died because of this administrations war efforts which have now been proven to be based on false information. If President Bush sought his presidency soley to complete what his father started in the Middle East using the power of our military as his tool, then he has abused us all. He was elected to lead and to take care of the people he represented. This did not happen. Instead, we have been oppressed by his personal mission based on his familys’ oil interests. I hope someone somewhere finds a way to hold him and his associates responsible for the damage he has caused snd the thousands of lives that have been taken due to his decisions. I lost my grandmother, my aunt, and my sister during the last four years of his presidency. All before their time. All due to the lack of accountability now present in the health care industry. They were good hard working people who just couldn’t take anymore. I will miss them, and I hope our next President will make the changes needed to keep this from continuing.

The Bush people must be prosecuted, thats not a witch hunt unless it gets purely political. Pursuing prosecutions of people who are guilty of crimes is not a witch hunt, its justice and if the Obama administration does not do this they are essentially saying there is no justice for those above the law, hence no democracy. We then have a ruling power elite that is above the law. Not democratic and not free.
