It takes him a while, but Obama does the right thing.

Oh, look. Apparently, the Geneva Conventions still mean something.
Good for him.

I still say this guy may be to the right of PMS. Kerry certainly was. Edwards, no.
Obama ain't no progressive, I say.
He is marginally to the left of the left outfield @ Dodger Stadium compared to MacCain's right faceoff circle in Shea.
Did I mention that Palin is not only stupid, she is a genuis compared to her ex (running mate)?
"In a press release, the Justice Department said it was submitting a new standard to hold detainees at Gitmo.

OMG THE ADULTS ARE REALLY IN CHARGE.

True.. it's funny that everyone was like "omg he's so introspective, he's so thinky... " this is bad? Since when.

Knee jerk reactions and a huge military and nuclear arsenal don't mix.
I'd add Christian fundamentalism to that, CamCam.
Is Obama a step up from Shrub? Obviously.
Is Obama the perfect POTUS for progressives? Clearly no.
I'm still pleased to see an improvement, however.
wv = presto
Cameron = mikmik: If I may speak honestly, I don't care if he's a progressive or not, I want him to run the place like he gives a shit about it and about consequences.
Yeah, he is a level of magnitude, or two, more responsible. Thanks for pointing that out.
"It takes him a while"

Did I mention that Palin is not only stupid, she is gorgeous compared to her ex running mate?
