I love Glenn Greenwald. He catches Obama in a remarkable — and shameless — act of hypocrisy. Obama on why America can’t investigate the systematic human-rights abuses that were ordered at the highest levels of its government:
I’m a strong believer that it’s important to look forward and not backwards.
And Obama on why Indonesia must investigate the systematic human-rights abuses that were ordered at the highest levels of its government:
We have to acknowledge that those past human rights abuses existed. We can’t go forward without looking backwards.
Being American means never having to say you’re sorry. --> hilarious
