No Lookin' Back

Tonight, MSNBC is touting this USA Today/Gallup poll that says somewhere around 38% of Americans want the Dems to investigate the Dubya Admin's dealings as far as the torturing stuff at Abu Ghraib goes. Another 40% or so want an independent panel.

Therefore, MSNBC has their panties in a bunch and all hot n bothered suggesting Obaama should indeed investigate.

Simple problem: Obama needs some Repos to do what he wants with serious hassle, and either of those would shit-can that prospect.

Another problem: Americans, I contend, THINK they want an investigation, when they really don't. These things are often, long, messy, tangled, hard to grasp, and they tend to spend a boat load of cash or wasting valuable time.

They would quickly turn on the Obama Administration if this occurred. This could lead to a one-term President, which is not what we've fought so hard for these many dark years for.

I am a normal liberal would would love to turn the guns ablaze on Dubya, but by doing so we Dems would accomplish little.
