The more revelations that serious crimes were perpetrated by Bush/Cheney officials, the less likely it seems that U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder will do the right thing and criminally prosecute them. Covering up war crimes is a war crime in and of itself, and Mr. Holder and President Obama are becoming accessories after the fact. They don't have the intestinal fortitude or political will to do the right thing. When Obama said there is only one system of justice, he was lying through his hypocritical teeth. The rich (Wall Street CEO's) and politically-privileged (Bush/Cheney officials) are above the law because Obama and Holder put them there--CRIMINAL JUST US. Obama is standing between the angry mob holding pitchforks and torches and his benefactors who are corrupt Wall Street executives proudly protecting them not realizing that he will be the first one to taste justice, and the same situation is developing with respect to Bush/Cheney war crimes and his protection of them.
