Obama Disillusionment Watch #2: Obama to continue Bushitler's evil spying and torture policies!
2008-11-11

Civil-liberties groups were among those outraged that the White House sanctioned the use of harsh intelligence techniques -- which some consider torture -- by the Central Intelligence Agency, and expanded domestic spy powers. These groups are demanding quick action to reverse these policies.

Mr. Obama is being advised largely by a group of intelligence professionals, including some who have supported Republicans, and centrist former officials in the Clinton administration. They say he is likely to fill key intelligence posts with pragmatists.

H/t Instapundit, who reports taht over at the Huffasnuffaluffagus Post, they've reprinted the WSJ article, but comments are "closed." Is that being done to prevent the moonbats regular readers from blaspheming The One expressing their outrage at Obama's apparent betrayal of disinterest in one of their pet causes?

#2  It's not torture now. It's an in depth interview regarding minority religious viewpoints. Get with the program, guys.l

We also will not call it intelligence gathering/spying. It is mere data collection. Who could possibly be against that, when it's purpose is to add to the vast knowledge of The One?

#1  However, since "The One" is without Original Sin, he can not be criticised.

(Original Sin = loving America and wanting it to be successful)
