I find digby's one sided allegiance to Obama, the current torturer and assassin in chief, the man who has single handedly done all he can to protect Bush, troubling to say the least. Example du jour, Obama WH wants Mrs Bin Laden and digby turns it into a Cheney bash? Seriously, didn't Obama just shoot her unarmed husband in front of her 12 year old daughter? Lie 2 Seals couldn't have duct taped OBL and thrown his frail body over one o their shoulders and carried him out? Sunday, May 08, 2011 Wife Abuse by digby The NY Times reports: Thomas E. Donilon, the White House national security adviser, called Sunday for Pakistan to grant the United States access to Osama bin Laden’s three widows, who are in Pakistani custody following the secret American raid that killed the Qaeda leader last week. In addition to possibly learning more about Al Qaeda, American officials hope the women could help answer whether any Pakistani government or security officials were complicit in hiding Bin Laden. Howie tweeted a question earlier wondering why nobody asked Cheney this morning whether he would recommend waterboarding them. I would guess not. This is a question I'm not really sure anyone really wants answered. (Or maybe needs answered.) I think the better question is what happens if it comes out that they did know. (Or even more sticky, that the US knew too.) No, I don't think Dick Cheney really wants anyone to delve too deeply into this one. Lot's of skeletons are probably lying around in that closet. But that doesn't mean he wouldn't be for waterboarding them anyway. You know -- just for fun.
