I've had threads locked here just for asking what the principles of the current Democratic Party are.
Good luck seeking action based on principle in DC.

If no one in Washington has the balls to hold these, the worst kind of criminals, to account, then maybe someone elsewhere will. Honestly, is this what it has come to? You can break the most sacred of human laws and get off the hook without so much as a trial, or a serious investigation?
If they really get to retire to their mansions and their millions without any justice, then the constitution isn't worth very much at all to us anymore.
Shame.

And as much as this is a time for celebration, and it is, if we do not hold Obama's feet to the fire over this, then we have learned nothing from this horrific eight year episode.

19. obama has already embraced powell. |
|
that was the signal that he does not intend to go after the bush maladministration. so much for the constitutional law, "change" guy. just more slick politics.
