4. Obama has shown that his purpose in becoming president was NOT to bring Change.
It was to keep the status quo and protect torturers, the power-base in DC. Torture like pornography is sometimes difficult to define, but I know it when I see it. And Obama is planning to sweep it All under the rug. Turning his back on the obvious criminal behavior of former and current political powers. We might as well have voted in Gerald Ford.

8. Ha! We've known about it for years...
and you think one person is going to come in and save the day? What government do you think we have anyway? You can't even get the representatives from your state to do the right thing.

9. If torture is difficult to define, then maybe you shouldn't be demanding heads for it. nt

6. We expose nothing that is not..
acceptable to expose. "National Security", and "Classified Material" will see to that. Just look at the Walsh Prosecutions of the Iran/Contra patsies.
