Turley to Obama: �Do the right thing,� prosecute torture

Constitutional attorney Jonathan Turley wants the Obama administration to �do the right thing� by appointing a special prosecutor to investigate the Bush administration�s torture program.
�I hope, at a minimum, President Obama will end this just endless performance of Hamlet on the Potomac, debating whether a special prosecutor will be appointed, whether these crimes will be investigated, and do the right thing,� he said on MSNBC�s Rachel Maddow Show Thursday night. �Just appoint a special prosecutor and let the chips land where they may.�
Judge Jay Bybee, who co-authored memos that authorized the Bush administration�s torture program, is trying to reach out and lobby members of the Nevada delegation in hopes that he won�t be disbarred from his seat on the bench, Maddow said. LinkHere
