14. constitutional implications

I don't doubt that someone is trying to bury these 28 pages for reasons that aren't clear. The reason I've heard is to preserve good relations with the Saudis... but when I finally checked the timing of when it was classified... it confirmed my suspicions that Bush wanted to cover up Saudi involvement and fabricate evidence to justify an illegal Iraq invasion. If the public knew... then all the public support Bush's lies had generated would have evaporated... except, of course, for the gullible on the rabid right.

But if this was additional evidence of criminality on the part of the Bush Junta... just what was Obama's motives for covering it up? I can see where McCain would have.

Obama constitutional obligation is to enforce US laws not to cover up Bush's war crimes. This and Obama's failures to prosecute Wall Street... and fully reform the financial sector are his biggest failures.... and I have to wonder if history will treat him well. But then, history doesn't matter if it's never exposed... or if it is, never makes it into the public mind.
