We should all let Pres Obama know that his "look forward" position ON TORTURE (AND OTHER CRIMES) is tantamount to obstruction of justice.
He should remove his "bias" from the equation; and let AG Eric Holder do his appointed job which is to PROSECUTE KNOWN CRIMINAL ACTIONS--OF WHICH THERE ARE SEVERAL. The first step would be to appoint a SPECIAL PROSECUTOR.
Mr Obama, please stop being an OBSTRUCTIONIST.

Thumbs-up. I'm with anyone who wants to prosecute Bush. But good luck with that.
It has about as much chance as “End Imperial Presidency,” Idea # 571,

To do that, or to do anything else that makes sense, we need a simple, accessible way to let ordinary people know that we do not have Freedom of the Press. Everything hinges on the First Amendment, which has been gutted for all practical purposes. That's why we need: “Who Owns the Media,” Idea #664, http://opengov.ideascale.com/akira/dtd/3276-4049. Everything hinges on the fact that the First Amendment is not working any more.
And violating our Constitution. It destroys our reputation in the world as a democracy with freedoms, etc.
It also makes the last election promises lies.
