Thanks for posting this E. I want to be able to look my yet to be born grandkids in the eye & tell them although this happened under my watch, I DID something about it.

This is not partisan, this is law abiding, and humanitarian.

Hell~ This is downright patriotic-- defending the constitution & all.

I'm kinda torn on the issue of a SP. On one hand, I expect people to do their job. On the other hand it maybe the only way. And on the other hand(I have 3) I might not know what I'm talking about.
Peace.

I think it is to the point the only way it will not be partisan is to move it over seas.. maybe when the UN Special Rapporteur Manfred Nowak comes into DC in the next few weeks, it can go to the Hague.

I think considering that they used Different Branchs- Military and JD, and CIA and Contractors- I think it might have to be UN - I researched this all night- and I don;t see how one branch could investigate another,...etc....I think atleast having the Public Write to Holder and express Outrage is a start....and there must be I think an Investigation and a Truth Commission so the Public gets the truth- the last time there was a special Prosecutor- that was a diaster-
Scooter....and the JD I think is still fairly Bush Infested...


and the GOP here is so demented...and brain dead- I hate to say it- but I think Someone Else will have to take over- maybe we should write the UN.....

I don't know...
and I am so sick over it...
