Obama says torturers may face prosecution

[Dreadscale]

Hi All !!

Did the US really really need 2 more wars to stick on its CV??????

I'm lost here. What is a CV?

send nancy pelosi to jail first she let the shit go for YEARS and did nothing!!

A pretty bold statement!!
I actually saw the press conference where she stated, Congress was lied to and she was not informed of torture already being used.

That being said!!
I feel just as safe today as I did when the last administration was in office.
If we are going to pursue prosecution for torture "we" need all the information. WE as in the Judicial Branch not WE the public.

I believe there should be very few exemptions from prosecution, I personally don't know where to draw this line.
If a person is acting on orders given to them by a superior, maybe, they should be exempt.
Anyone giving the orders to torture should be held accountable.
Anyone with the knowledge of illegal operations, and the power to do something about it should be held accountable, if they did nothing to stop it.

This should to apply to ALL branches of government, and I do believe bad legal advice is grounds for removal of seated judges also.
If it is found that anyone participated in illegal actions they should have their day in court.
Lets get it done and move on!!

Someone implied earlier that Obama is using this for a distraction!
I believe this is way off base! Obama shouldn't have to deal with this!
We shouldn't even have to mention torture, this is all just crazy!!

The fact is; We do have to deal with it!!!
Not because Obama wants to distract us, but because the previous administration was so messed up we can't ignore it!!
We as a people decided on election day enough is enough!! Not me, the COUNTRY, the voters, you and me!!!
If you didn't get the representation in Washington you wanted, TUFF NOOGIES, the majority did. Both popular and electoral, but that is another topic!

If you are relying on the information we are getting from the media, we will never get at the truth!
FOX NEWS, MSNBC, or CNN they all their own agenda to pursue, MONEY and RATINGS.

Just Sayin :hippy:

Can we ALL agree on one thing? NOONE IS ABOVE THE LAW!!
