27. I Think The Way He's Addressing This So Far Is Brilliant
Obama MUST stay above the fray on this issue if we're ever going to hold Bush/Cheney accountable for their crimes. The prosecution of these criminals must be based in law and not in politics. If Obama ever says that, yes, he is going to go after them, the Republicans will cry, "Politics!" and nothing will ever happen. But if Obama stays above this, while the Justice Department goes after them, he can always say, "That's for the prosecutors decide. I myself am moving forward."

As much as I want to see the Bush/Cheney traitors held accountable, I *don't* want it to define Obama's presidency. I want him to accomplish more than that--putting them in jail will be an added bonus. And he's on track (so far) to do so.
