The New York Times: Reports that the Lawyers behind the Bush 43 Torture memos will not be prosecuted by the Justice Department. It seems that the message has gotten through to the Democrats. This was an issue that could have made the Republicans go down the scorched earth policy when it came to the Obama Administration. As mention on this blog and of late on the The Factor on Fox, the Obama Administration has extended the use of the drones in Pakistan to kill terrorists. It seems that the drones are blowing up the terrorists when they are with their families. As stated on this blog the Obama Administration has the blood on the innocent on its hands, its in a glass house if starts to prosecute those lawyers from the Bush Administration. As stated Obama could have found himself after four or eight years having to give a lot of affidavits on his legal memos. But it seems political reality has hit the Obama White House and his Justice Department. It would be wise for all sides to let the issue drop for the future. Don't get me wrong, I agree with Obama's policy of extended use of the drones, and their use in Pakistan, but lets not place either side in glass houses, it only needs cracks to make all sides very out of order. Thus a nod to the Obama Administration.
