LATEST OBAMA MINDTRICK: Bush anti-terror policies were "neither effective nor sustainable"

JAWA: Trying to Fix What Ain't Broke

President Obama, using his snottiest, most condescending voice said that:

"Decisions that were made over the last eight years established an ad hoc legal approach for fighting terrorism that was neither effective nor sustainable – a framework that failed to rely on our legal traditions and time-tested institutions; that failed to use our values as a compass," Obama said. "And that is why I took several steps upon taking office to better protect the American people."

Um, Barry, you can't bat any better than 1000, and, much as you loathe the reality, that's exactly what the Bush administration did following 9/11.
