People Trash Obama On Memos

Posted by: Laer at 09:25 am

This morning, the Pentagon announced that it will soon release new photos of “enhanced interrogation techniques” in action since Eric Holder’s Justice Dept. decided it will not continue the Bush DOJ’s efforts to  keep the photos away from the prying eyes of terrorists and anti-Americans, like the ACLU, which is suing for their release.

It’s not surprising the photos are out. What defense could the admin mount to keep them secret if they’ve already released the memos on the same interrogation techniques? Actions have consequences.

This latest development in the unfolding trashing of defense and security by Obama reveals the depth of his hard-left, anti-American feelings … and the people get it. They might forgive him selling the economy down the river, but they don’t like him making them less secure so he can keep MoveOn.org and the ACLU happy. Rasmussen:

Fifty-eight percent (58%) believe the Obama administration’s recent release of CIA memos about the harsh interrogation methods used on terrorism suspects endangers the national security of the United States. The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey found that 28% believe the release of the memos helps America’s image abroad. …

Sizable majorities of Republicans and unaffiliated voters say the release of the CIA memos about the interrogations hurts national security. Democrats are evenly divided on whether the release hurt national security or helped the image of the United States abroad.

To those who think the release help our image abroad, should you go to your grave as the result of terrorism spawned by the release of these documents, I hope you die happy, knowing folks overseas like you more than they did under Bush.

Rasmussen also found that nearly twice as many feel DOJ cares too much about individual rights at the cost of security than believe the legal system cares too much about protecting national security. And a scant 28 percent would counsel Obama to pursue criminal charges against Bush admin officials.

With Obama winning the presidency by seven percent, we can't blame the media. Their laudatory coverage and refusal to extensively probe into Obama's background and [lack of] experience was at best responsible for five percent of his vote, the pundits tell us. Here is a compilation of over 100 significant instances of pro-Obama/anti-McCain bias during the 2008 campaign.
