Mr. President, you alluded to your oath of office today, stating that you are obligated
to follow the rule of law. The Convention Against Torture, as a treaty ratified by the Senate and thus a part of the supreme law of the land, specifically requires YOU to investigate and prosecute, when found, torturers and those who authorized it.
Therefore, you are bound by law and by your oath to do so. Failure to do so will be, in and of itself, a high crime.
Here is a link to the text of the C.A.T.

Probably would have meant the DUmmie would have to (a) have a job that (b) had something to do with being there, so it was safe on both counts.

20. Obama isn't an investigator or a prosecutor, he's the President
So you might as well just call him a criminal now and quit wasting our time.
So going by that logic, is Bush still a DUmp war criminal?

Yeah, there was, but I'll be damned if I can find it.
I know I predicted the primitives would "break" with Pa Kettle in the White House by mid-summer, but I don't recall if I meant chimpeachment too.

Yeah there is. Withdraw from the treaty. Simple.
Wouldn't that cause a few heads to explode...

Will monkey trials be the scope of this?

Problem is, it took the towers too long to fall. It gave the DUmmies panhandling at the front door time to get clear.
