No charges against CIA officials for waterboarding

"Seeking to move beyond what he calls a 'a dark and painful chapter in our history,' President Obama said Thursday that CIA officials who used harsh interrogation tactics during the Bush administration will not be prosecuted.

"The government released four memos in which Bush-era lawyers approved in often graphic detail tough interrogation methods used against 28 terror suspects. The rough tactics range from waterboarding — simulated drowning — to keeping suspects naked and withholding solid food."

What was that word again?

Change?

And you thought Bush was bad? "Bush II" now playing at the theater at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. Washington, D.C.
