BAN ENHANCED INTERROGATION (water boarding)

Executive order 13493 signed by President Barack Obama on Jan. 22' 2009  titled Review of Detention Policy Options a fancy way to say no more water boarding. But his administration never would have had the opportunity to do the right thing had it not been for some extraordinary work during the George W. Bush administration. Much of that work has been denigrated by Obama as unproductive and contrary to American principles. Then to make matters much worse Obama campaign officials made public that Mitt Romney as president would have refrained from the capture of BinLaden. Shortly after bin Laden met his maker last spring, courtesy of U.S. Special Forces and intelligence, the administration proudly announced that when Obama took office, getting bin Laden was made a top priority. Many of us who served in senior counterterrorism positions in the Bush administration were left muttering: “Gee, why didn’t we think of that?”
