Correct, you don't get to count this a "get it right" when it only corrects an outrageous wrong by this bastard. I can't wait to see commander clueless and his cast of corrupt incompetent cronies just go away.

Yeah he did do something right for a change.

Tomorrow I will fly flags on my 30 foot flag pole. I live on a hill just east (4mi) east of Fort Worth. It can be seen for miles. When wmd's were not found and it was apparent that we went to war for reasons other than what we were told I pulled down my flags and said I would not fly them again as long as that SOB was still President.

After Obama drops his hand the flags go up again.

No, they were NOT obligated to "file" a report of the incident. All they were obligated to do, according to Border Patrol policy, was give an oral report to their supervisor, who was supposed to "file" a report, but didn't. The supervisor was on scene after the incident happened, along with other bp agents immediately after it happened. The supervisor and the other agents were given IMMUNITY for their testimony against Ramos and Compean. Gee, could they have possibly been threatened with prosecution for not doing so?

People, get this straight... they did make their report to their supervisor, an ORAL report, per the bp policy. Supervisor was on scene, and never filed an official incident report.

They were maliciously prosecuted!

You know, off-topic, but something else Bush got right - after 9/11 he and Cheney said, "DONT STOP SHOPPING." Though they put it the wrong way, and didnt bother to explain, and it shouldnt have been the very first thing out of their mouths.

That's all, just wanted to mention the one good thing I can think of from the last eight years
