We would never do anything about Lockerbie without discussing it with the US. It is disingenuous of them to act as though Megrahi’s return was out of the blue.

The only thing that would make this story better would be if Gordon Brown gave the information to Obama on an iPod filled with his most notable speeches.

Is this as important as I think it is?

I think it is powerfully important, with the 9-11 anniversary coming up, and with all of the weak, bed-wetting, pro-terrorist stuff that Obama is pulling right now.

I think people will understand this.

Obama and Hillary knew a Terrorist Murderer of Americans was going to be released.

They didn't make a peep.

He knew, he kept silent, he once again made his vow of transparency a big fat lie. Not to worry, the MSM will cover his tracks.

I agree, this is a very important revelation and a window into the childish Jimmy Carter/Barack Obama foreign policy, ie, be nice to evil doers and they will like you and be nice in return.

I'd guess that it is a toss up whether or not this gains traction. Given the total corruptuion of the major media, the most incendiary facts often go unnoticed.

This is very important. Obama deserves all the disdain that Gordon Brown is receiving and more for pretending he had no say in the matter.

"Ya know what always worked fer me, Barack? Ah'd say 'Ah read about it in the papers just like you did.' And the American people just ate it right up.

Agreed. This kind of blatant lying is infuriating, and I think lies behind much of the town hall phenomenon.
