Crying Shame

Our ObamaNation wonders how a Nation and its President explain the following?:

We honor a man who due to his drinking caused a woman to be put in peril, who due to his criminal neglect caused her to drown, who attempted to get others to assume the blame for his irresponsible and illegal actions, who was never in anyway asked to pay a penalty for these actions, and who was allowed to continue to serve in elected office.

We conduct a criminal investigation into CIA agents who under strict controls interrogated known terrorists, who used water based techniques that in no way put the terrorists in peril, who assumed full responsibility for their actions being within strict guidelines, who conducted these interrogations hoping to save the lives of others, who are now being asked to pay a penalty for their responsible and honorable actions, and who only want to be allowed to continue to serve their country.

Muse - Crying Shame Lyrics

Too much
And we demolished too much
And yeah we really messed it up
And yeah baby you've lost your touch

But we had a dream
And it was meant to be
And we were kissing gods
Against all the odds

Now it's a crying shame
And it's a crying shame
You don't know who to blame
We'll never be the same
And it's a crying shame
And it's a crying shame
