...
Obama said that as president he would indeed ask his new Attorney General and his deputies to "immediately review the information that's already there" and determine if an inquiry is warranted -- but he also tread carefully on the issue, in line with his reputation for seeking to bridge the partisan divide. He worried that such a probe could be spun as "a partisan witch hunt." However, he said that equation changes if there was willful criminality, because "nobody is above the law."

1. Huh

Obama throws GWB under the bus...bout freaking time.

[ClassWarrior]

2. He said this the first time more than a month ago.

NGU.

5. He'd be better off not to make it a big campaign issue, though.

Time enough to take action when he gets into office. Fly under the radar until then!

I get the sense that as a Constitutional lawyer that he'll make it a priority to put things right.

[Why Syzygy]

I agree .

He doesn't need to make a big deal of it. I trust him to do the right thing.

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

When Dean mentioned breaking up media consolidation...bam!, the "Scream."

Keep it on the down low.

4. His knowledge of the Constitution should come in handy...

...good reason to vote for him.

6. Harvard law educated constitutional law professor U of Chicago

Hell yeah!

7. Again let me say this is an issue the people have to push.

The moment he is in there there will be extreme pressure to "let them go" and sadly that will likely happen with any candidate unless we the people continue to demand justice.

[mucifer]

9. Agreed!

[Zachstar]

12. It is more about just saying I agree it takes dedication.

I fear that because the nation will be so happy with a democratic president that we will let the crimes and the people in the administration who committed them slip away.

Justice must be served!

At the same time that does not mean nut job conspiricy theories need to be flooding all over the place. Justice can only be served on 100 percent beyond a shadow of a doubt crimes in accordance of US Law.

So this is about

Torture
Election Fraud
The leak

Not

9/11
Chemtrails
UFO conspiricy theories

I hope people like Alex Jones do not hijack the movement for justice to push unprovable crap.

8. And Poppy Bush is calling up his Cuban hit men...

to see if they are busy...

10. Not even Enron could hide in the end

George you reap what you sow

11. he'll sweep it all right under the oval office rug,they both will probably.

[emilyg]

13. Yep.

[Algorem]

18. or how much of a majority in house and senate would he or she

have to have to actually do something?

[eallen]

14. Obama again shows he has what it takes. K&R.

[SoonerPride]

15. Run on a platform of having them tried for war crimes.

I'd love to see Bush in chains at the Hague.

Crying.

[Symarip]

16. Oh, silly

Clinton supporters don't care about war crimes. Then they'd have to face the fact that they're voting for a warmonger, herself.

Silly, silly.

[kenny blankenship]

17. Immediately PROSECUTE (or STFU)

Democrats have been "reviewing" Bushler's crimes- and their own ani- for years now. I'm sick of hearing pledges of how they'll "look into it."

Do it or shut up.

[emilyg]

19. "Reviewing" is a cop-out. Empty promises.
