which issue is legal?
If the government is going to prosecute the war criminals who were involved with prisoner abuse and water boarding, then OK...
our special forces went into foreign countries, took prisoners, and transported them back to Guitmo for processing. All done under the Bush administration.
Would it be proper then to prosecute Seal Team 6 and all service members affiliated with the Bin Laden raid (under Obama) for the same exact crimes ?
Further if Bush should have been impeached, then what about Obama.
Or is this just another example of the liberals double speak and wishy washy morals.
yes, they are very similar actions because both were following orders of POTUS. If one is legal then both should be legal. You can't or change the facts to suite publicity stunts by politicians.
Additionally you must consider under BUsh there was a declared war. Currently there was no declared war in Pakistan (a supposed ally), and there was no declared war in Libya. Both were open and obvious acts of war committed by a president outside the provisions of the War Powers Act.
So we are back to the double standard part aren't we.
