I am trying not to be distracted by the flu reports (not much I can do about it), nor that FAUX is not going to televise Obama's press conference (I want to know how many people will watching that shitty network)

I want to stay focused on torture.

1. Not much you can do about prosecution of torture either.
Hey, we can walk and chew gum.

Patience is needed by all of us. The fact that we're even talking about this not even 100 days into this admin is simply amazing. So many, many problems, and our prez is handling them.

2. Prez isn't the one that has to do anything. Holder on the other hand...

3. I know. Patience.
Holder has even less time at his job than the President does.

4. "War crimes will be prosecuted..."
War crimes will be prosecuted, war criminals will be punished and it will be no defense to say, "I was just following orders."
