the true United States on display tonight. One Nation under control of the White Guy with liberty and justice for just White Guy's and if you don't like it,your dead. Never thought I would see the day that our Justice System would fail us in this way. Now I know why Obama and Holder never pushed prosecution of Bush and Cheney for War Crimes or corruption. They would have been victims like JFK Mlk and Bobby Kennedy and many others who spoke up only to be shut up.
