Don't you think we should be holding ourselves to a higher standard than our enemy?
I'm not fan of Obama and I can't stand his endless "blame game" but I fully agree that America should hold itself to the standard that we might expect from our founding fathers. I fully believe in self defense and defense of our nation but we either shoot the enemy dead in combat or we don't. Capturing them then torturing them falls short of an acceptable practice in my opinion. When we, as a nation, openly condone torture then we send a message to our enemy that it's okay for them to torture American soldiers. Yes ... I know ... our soldiers have been tortured by enemies over the years but that what THEY do ... that's not what WE do.
As for Obama's recent pretense of concern we all know that he does what he does for political gain so I find his facade disgusting.
