The presidency of Barack Obama ended on Friday, August 1st, 2014, as far as I am concerned. He'll sit in that round room until January of 2017, but he can go peddle his platitudes elsewhere. By lining up with and defending the torturers, he has added his name to the roll call of shame that continues to dishonor this nation. I no longer have any interest in what he has to say.Barack Obama reveals himself for what he really is, a pragmatist without principle. A suit instead than a person. And a criminal, just like those who broke their oath and the torturers.
