When it comes to prosecution, it shouldn't be up to anybody; the is – more than – reasonable suspicion that crimes against humanity have been committed. We are bound by law to investigate and if cause is found prosecute. If we do not do this, we are complicit in these crimes.

That we are even discussing whether or not to investigate shows a terrible weakness on our part; a terrible flaw in our system. If we are too afraid to do what is right, hopefully another country will step up to the plate. Canada recently failed the test when they let G.W. into the country to rake in some cash. Right now the smart money is on Spain being the beacon of liberty and the rule of law.

I urge Americans of all political stripes to demand their representatives to fulfill their duty and investigate these highest of all crimes committed in our name.

It's not fair to prosecute our degenerate pervert monsters for the simple act of torturing people to death! Why should they suffer when they were just doing as they were ordered by their masters-creating snuff porn to enhance Cheney's tumescent, throbbing need for power. After all, its no different from beating your wife or children, or kicking a dog to death. Forced sodomy, beatings, all but drowning a man, why, this nation has stood against that kind of atrocity even when we were totally wallowing in the degenerate filth of our own bloodlust for atrocity! Now that Leon has seen the torture tapes, he probably got a bit of wood from it just like Cheney. The raw raging h@rd-on that comes with the power of life and death, unaccountable and unquestioned. This power is a perversion worse than the penny ante sins of even Catholic priests. Our nation is stained by the secrecy that colludes to hide this corrosion.

I'd like to make sure that WHEN there are prosecutions, that CIA Director Leon Panetta’s name is among them.

“As Pennsylvania Republican Sen. Arlen Specter said at a recent Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, if there’s reason to believe that government officials “have given approval for things that they know not to be lawful and sound, go after them.”
