Whining Evil Party politicians and the President admitting

'might be harder to get information' when we have to ask the terrorists nicely for what they're up to.
Hispanic Democrats are furious and demanding an apology over an image wedged in a new GOP web video on terrorism that shows members of the Hispanic Caucus sitting at a table with President Obama.

“On behalf of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus (CHC), we write to demand an apology for the inclusion of the picture of the CHC meeting with President Obama in the video on your official website entitled “Do You Feel Safer?,’” the CHC wrote in a letter being sent to Republican Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio), whose office created the video
.
"You showed us with President Obama in your nasty video! How dare you!" Shut up, butthead.

In a strikingly defensive explanation of his stance on Bush-era anti-terrorism tactics, President Obama on Wednesday acknowledged for the first time that the harsh interrogation techniques he has banned might have yielded useful information, but that he was nonetheless willing to rule them out on moral grounds.

...He conceded that "it may be harder" to get information, but what "makes us, I think, still a beacon to the world is that we are willing to hold true to our ideals, even when it's hard, not just when it's easy."
Translation: "Even whenif the terrorists kill a bunch more Americans, I think it's worth it to remember that we behaved well while questioning those who knew what was going to happen."

God help us.

I suspect that God has probably written us off just as we have written Him off...

I love the way Obama uses his best lawyer talk all the time. Notice how often he says "I think" when stating what would otherwise be a factual statement.

He's got lawyering hardwired into his brain and he just can't help putting in the weasel words on a regular basis.

It is kind of funny to watch him stutter as he makes sure to just the right thing.
