There's something lame about correcting oneself?

No, and I didn't read very carefully. Sorry about that. I am tired of
all the lame grammar and spelling flames, you can believe that. I
wouldn't dare start that **** myself.

We are aware that you don't have both oars in the water, Krausie.

I'm not a very vengeful person. So it would be easy for me to leave this
in the past. ITOH, there is the future. We do need to understand how it
happened to prevent it from happening again. It's a tough call that I'm
glad I don't have to make.

There is your problem, thinking that the war will ever be over. We may
leave Iraq, we may leave Afghanistan but, the war will never be over.

True but, jailing or attempting to jail people for their ideas sets a
bad precedent.

I don't expect that's the last word on the matter.

And Obama with all the pork and Murtha + other scandals may not want to
open
up that can of Whoop Ass. In 4 years, Obama and his crowd could be up on
charges of looting the country. Has been the case for a couple hundred
years not to go after the previous administration. Look out if you do and
you lose the Presidency. And with comments like The Obama Brand.

GW Bush would be up on charges right now if the criteria were looting
the country.

As AG, it's against the law to not prosecute those you know violated
the law. The AG knows this and will have to find a way to deal with
it. We knowingly tortured prisoners on dubious legal foundations.

If the US doesn't clean up it's own mess, there are others who will
reluctantly or gladly take up the mantle, however distasteful that may
be.

Looting the country? $1.8 Trillion buckeroos this year alone. Now that is
looting!!!!
