    One Thing We Have Learned

    Eric Holder will do exactly what Obama tells him to do. If there is anything we have learned from the last 8 years it's that the president is king and no one is allowed to question him. Obama will decide if Bush broke the law. Obama will decide if Cheney broke the law. He will instruct his congess and his AG accordingly. My feeling is that no investigations will be allowed by Obama and no charges will ever be brought against any one in the Bush administration. All in the spirit of 'bipartisanship'. Sickening. Obama is no different than Bush. Just younger.
