New York Times calls for Cheney, Bush officials to be investigated and prosecuted for torture
In a blistering editorial published in the Monday edition of the New York Times, the editorial page editors are calling upon the Justice Department to open an investigation into the torture practices committed during the administration of President George W. Bush with an eye towards prosecuting those who “committed torture and other serious crimes,” along with former Vice President Dick Cheney and other major administration officials.
Now we just need to fix the damage W. did before the financial crisis in time for his brother to ruin everything- LOLGOP

So, The CIA Is Accountable To No One

Federal Reserve
When the U.S. Federal Reserve ended its quantitative-easing program in October, it also ended the primary driver of U.S. stocks during the past six years. So long as the central bank kept flooding the markets with money, investors had little reason to worry about a broader economy limping along at 2 percent real growth.
This year: 2,506,000 jobs created and 9+ million gained insurance.
8 years of W.: 1,282,000 jobs created and 7.9 million lost insurance.- LOLGOP
