From Real Clear Politics.com:
Debra Burlingame, the sister of Charles “Chic” Burlingame (pilot of the plane that crashed into the Pentagon) met with President Obama today, along with other families who were victims of 9/11. Burlingame said she confronted Obama about Attorney General Eric Holder prosecuting the men who interrogated KSM, which may have produced intelligence leading us to bin Laden.
Burlingame describes the encounter with Obama: “As a former attorney I know you can’t tell the Attorney General what to do, he said, ‘No, I can’t.’ But I said ‘we — that shouldn’t stop you from giving your opinion. We wouldn’t be here today if they hadn’t done their jobs. Can’t you at least give them your opinion.’ And he said ‘no I won’t,’ and he turned around and walked away.”

Obama: he cannot brook any confrontation.
Nor will he fundamentally honor America’s exceptionalism.
Incredible arrogance, that.
Continuing criminal charges against the interrogators of KSM?

Just another good reason to elect a conservative Republican (not another Bush, or McCain) who will have the balls to pardon these men (assuming they are found guilty of anything) as well as the border agents who killed a Mexican drug smuggler (prosecuted and convicted under the testosterone-challenged Bush) and anyone else unreasonably charged and prosecuted due to political correctness and progressive group-think.
There are now SEVERAL issues to bite him in the ass next election.
This is just one of ’em.
Watched him make the announcement. To paraphrase his wife, for the very first time I felt proud of our president. That lasted a day. What a tool!
