(Via Hot Air Headlines) Explicitly, and as part of the pushback to the Cheney interview where the former Vice President weighed the current President in the balance, and found him wanting.
Democrats hit back just minutes after Cheney’s interview aired. The Democratic National Committee fired off an e-mail to reporters disputing Cheney’s argument that the CIA records released last week showed the enhanced interrogation techniques under the Bush administration were effective in gathering intelligence about Al Qaeda. The e-mail, which cited various news reports, also accused the former vice president of being a “strong and vocal proponent of torture,” and pointed to polls that show “American’s don’t agree with Cheney on national security.”
Leaving aside for the moment the wanton cruelty done to the English language with that rogue apostrophe - grammar-boarding, perhaps? - I have to ask: will this official accusation by the Democratic National Committee be acted upon, or even officially noticed, by the President of the United States? And if not: well, why not? After all, I assume that he agrees with the accusation - no competent party leader would let his organization go so off-message like this - so you’d think that he’d want to do something about it.
You’d think.

Steph C Sunday, August 30th at 4:27PM EDT (link)I mean, if I were a conspiracy wing nut, you’d think everything that’s happening is geared toward orchestrating another devastating attack on the country.
The FBI was put in charge of investigating the CIA. All things considered wouldn’t that also include Cheney’s “part.” Unless, they think they’re is something to gain by prosecuting these people swiftly, both Cheney and the CIA personnel, that could take years. The FBI does not move swiftly until they’ve had ample time for investigation.
So, we’re either to have a swift administering of “justice” or a long drawn out process that will likely be forgotten before the next election while still being able to make the “claim.”
However, it does rebuild the walls between agencies, doesn’t it?
How, exactly, does the Obama administration expect to keep us safe or does it care that we’re returning to a 9/10 mentality?

Steph, the logical conclusion
Flagstaff Sunday, August 30th at 6:58PM EDT (link)to be drawn from the actions of the ZerO are
1. He wants to undermine our ability to defend ourselves from invaders or terrorists in the future.
2. He is trying to do it in a way where no blame will fall upon him (it was Eric Holder’s idea to do that, not mine).
3. He wants to weaken us both economically and militarily.
4. He wants to undermine our influence in the world.
5. He wants to put policies and bureaucracies in place that will hamstring future Presidents.
6. He wants to weaken or destroy the power of any opposition party by destroying the ability of true grass roots dissent to be heard over the repression of the party in power (the Democrats).
7. He wants to control all outlets of mass media.
8. He wants to exercise even more power over the states by making them financially dependent on DC.
9. He wants to weaken our alliances with traditional friends, while making us more dependent on our enemies.
10. He wants to destabilize the dollar.

This is why Clinton, and now Obama, wish to treat terrorism as a crime problem and sic the FBI on them rather than taking action to eradicate the evil. Brian Faughnan touched upon this in his excellent diary last week.
As a Christian, I recognize that there is evil in the world. I recognize that terrorists embody this evil. I believe that those who are sinners deserve the chance to repent and seek the One True God. However, these Islamists have already rejected this. Therefore, I shake the (Islamist) dust from my sandals and support any and all efforts of the CIA and the military to eliminate the perps and the problem.

From what I understand, the Pope is all for Nationalized Healthcare, but, only has a sticking point with the Liberal bill paying for Abortion. They are against “birth control”, but have always been a proponent of having as many good little Catholics as possible, even if you cannot support them. I was told, by a Catholic priest that God would take care of them. Really! I am looking for some other religion that doesn’t preach how terrible, and how much of a sinner you are, and has a positive message about God. I am so sick and tired of the sermons about how terrible you are if you even have a bad thought. I’m sure I will get some flak with this post, by the Catholica, so be it. That was the only experience I’ve had with the Catholics.
