SocraticGadfly: Obama institutionalizes torture

Obama institutionalizes torture

Only a few thousand other bloggers have pointed out exactly this as the bottom line of President Barack Obama’s official refusal to prosecute the Bush Adminstration’s architects of torture.

Treaties ratified by our government spell out what torture is, and these people authored “legal” documents for CIA agents, along with abetting psychologists and others, to break the law.

As for those people, we rejected “just following order” at Nuremburg 1946.

Oh, I’m sorry, though, this is American exceptionalism, though.

Vote Green. Or Socialist.

Do NOT re-elect Barack Obama.
