My hope is that Obama will not ignore the hard things that need to be said and done - the prophetic acts - that ONLY he can do. <BR/><BR/>Only he can truly change the lies that W and his hawks have been trying to sell for all these years - like the way they all kept the US safe after 9/11. Right. What about how they didn't keep the US safe FROM 9/11 despite a gazillion or so warnings???? <BR/><BR/>Only he can name the war crimes that happened on the former admin's watch and ensure that they are prosecuted. <BR/><BR/>I really, really, hope that Barack doesn't take the safe route here. Yes, bipartisan-ship is great. But sometimes a crime just needs to be called a crime and the right thing needs to be done about it.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03407981987874669303noreply@blogger.com
