The CIA, and America, walks away free from the consequences of torture. Obama once again attempts to have his cake and eat it too.
"This is a time for reflection, not retribution," ... So says the 'leader of the free world'. What rubbish. This isn't change i can believe in!!And why this statement applies to American official action, and not the actions of another State, say Sudan, is anyones guess.
Obama fails a moral test, and slides further down the slippery slope. No doubt in his later memoirs he'll write about his greatest regret in not prosecuting, and resolving, Americas practice of torture.
