That's leadership.<BR/><BR/>I'm so thankful that some of his first actions is to take steps to demonstrate to the rest of the world that we're not monsters. Through terrible acts like this, the Bush administration took away any reason to be proud to be American. This WAS inhumane! With Obama's leadership, hopefully we will become the nation of good people that we can be.sunflowerkat https://www.blogger.com/profile/11643564072168293568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6403384531250069062.post-87242880299573887752009-01-25T09:04:00.000-08:002009-01-25T09:04:00.000-08:00This the end of the Bush era and long overdue.

The sentiments he expressed in his inaugural speech are things we would never have heard from the Bush administration. It is good to see the immediate implementation of those sentiments. He is the first truly inspirational leader this country has had in my lifetime.Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06802376335843012768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6403384531250069062.post-44535005580543489892009-01-24T04:56:00.000-08:002009-01-24T04:56:00.000-08:00You've said it all.

I read up on it. I kept expecting Bush to bring back The Iron Maiden and other tools of torture. Last fall someone I work with commented how waterboarding "wasn't torture". Uh-huh. If it took 35 seconds, as Kiarkura (sp?) says, to break a known terrorist using this technique, how long would Bush & Cheney last? Of course, this non-torture will never be used on them. I'm just happy to see these horrible things coming to an end.emmapeelDallashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05045502725282481075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6403384531250069062.post-31062789747354035312009-01-23T23:20:00.000-08:002009-01-23T23:20:00.000-08:00Did you know waterboarding was used during the Inq...Did you know waterboarding was used during the Inquisition?
