The CIA/Cheney worldwide Murder Inc., striking fear in the hearts of America's friends and enemies alike. This is the perfect tool for that old TR meme of "speak softly and carry a big stick". Back in that day, the USA engaged battleships to enforce American Exceptionalism & Imperial Prerogative in the Western Hemisphere. But USA's global imperialist ambitions have grown along with our increasingly powerful multinational mega-corporations.

Obama has wholeheartedly embraced this aspect of the Bush/Cheney Crime Family's foreign policy agenda, along with the Iraqi conflict, the Afghani conflict, and the (wait for it) saber-rattling against Iran.

War crimes investigation and prosecution, not so much. Continued tax cuts for the top 5% tax bracket, no problem. Non-lobbyist lobbyists hired directly into the top decision-making levels of the Obama administration, yeah well rules were made to be broken. TARP for not only the Wall Street (Gamblers Anonymous) Mob AND the Healthcare Industrial Complex, sure why not.

Obama now owns, lock-stock-and-barrel, the criminal policies of the Bush/Cheney Crime Family.

This country is sooo screwed.
