Reply #33: in NOT, at least investigating

[radfringe]

in NOT, at least investigating - 2 precedents are being maintained/set
bush-cheney admin set the precedent for "whatever the admin does is not illegal". they accumulated a lot of unfettered presidential power, free of oversight, free of accountability

this was passed onto Obama.

by NOT investigating, and not considering prosecutions (if the investagation warrents it) - Obama is maintaining that power, and setting a new on whereby previous administrations won't be held accountable

some may say "but Obama wouldn't use presidential powers in the same manner of Bush-cheney" - that may be true - HOWEVER - what about future presidents? We've had lousy presidents in the past, and probably will have them in the future - do we want this kind of power and lackof accountability in their hands?
