As far as torture goes, Obama's trying to refuse to prosecute that too. Of course, that's illegal under international law, but Obama doesn't seem to care about that any more than Bush did, tragically...
Let's hope that the Justice Department ignores that and prosecutes anyway! Rumor has it that they're seriously considering it, and I really, REALLY hope that they follow through. This is a decision for them, not the president.
I still like Obama but this is a let down.
You cant sell democracy to Iraqi's or Afghanistani's if you don't serve as a good remodel yourself.
If no one is made accountable, Then your sliding into kleptarchy.
