Wrong again. When we expose our flaws and our president goes on tv to criticize our country, it gives aid and comfort to our enemies. Jihadis will use Obama's remarks as a recruitment tool. Even our own citzens turn and act against their best interests as we saw in the NSA "scandal". The US needs to do what has to be done to fight the terrorists, and we need to STAY QUIET ABOUT IT - from Obama to a low-ranking intelligence specialist in the Army. Obama commits treason as surely as Manning when he exposes our country's legitimate and reasonable approaches to dealing with men who want to kill us, and gives our enemies fodder to recruit.
I think all the vile things and the lies that Repub's have said about Obama has weakened our country.

If those methods were actually legitimate and reasonable, there would be no need to keep them secret.
At the level of POTUS, incompetence is dangerous as well. The lack of adequate leadership at most levels of government (and business for that matter) in this country is inherently dangerous.

So You Stay Quiet, I will Not. Get some principles and morals before you wrap the Flag around you, right now what you represent and what the Flag represents do not agree.
It is the duty of the president to project the image of the US as compassionate, caring, doing the right thing - even if we are not.
No, it bloody well isn't.

Obama fails repeatedly in this duty by bashing and criticizing the country instead of speaking to why we are the best country in the world. He did it again with these remarks on torture.
"But you know as well as I, patriotism is a word; and one that generally comes to mean either my country, right or wrong, which is infamous, or my country is always right, which is imbecile."

When we expose our flaws, we show the world that we are strong enough and honest enough and honorable enough to expose ourselves. Fear is what drives people to "STAY QUIET". Americans are not driven by fear. And we don't torture our enemies. Torture is for people who are driven by fear. Americans are not driven by fear.
How much torture was done during WW2, Korea, Vietnam???? Lots. Barack should be impeached for disgracing the office. It is not his place to divulge anything. He is not qualified and was not there.
The report was about to be released - get it? So, YES, it is his place to divulge before it's 'divulged' by other people.
Is this another conservative I hear screaming for impeachment? Go for it.
