If Obama fails to hold Bush and the neocons to account for their brazen criminal activity, Rome is lost. He will continue to lack any moral authority in the world, and although the media will trumpet his morality, the people will know that he also, has no clothes. Obama needs to walk a fine line, but he must see that the principles of the rule of law are renewed, or anarchy will rear its ugly head in every corner of the earth. Re-establishing order can be accomplished in two ways. Cleanse the village to save the village, or reveal the truth of our system, and then try to fix it knowing all its flaws.
Which direction will Obama take?
