THE US government secretly advised Scottish ministers it would be "far preferable" to free the Lockerbie bomber than jail him in Libya.

Correspondence obtained by The Sunday Times reveals the Obama administration considered compassionate release more palatable than locking up Abdel Baset al-Megrahi in a Libyan prison.

I am not talking about a 3rd party, I am talking about the demise of the Republican Party and starting over.
Although the logistics of doing that might be impossible.

20 posts on a scoop that proves Obama loves Muslim terrorists? Good grief! This should be 400 by now.

Was this surprising news to you? It was not to me. Obama is a traitorous bastich. Yeah, that's a newsflash.

It's just that if the headline read, 'Zero just murdered twelve people and drank their blood', my response would be, 'Yeah, that sounds like him alright'.

Besides, why do you presume to know what other Freepers should or should not be posting? If you think it's such a hot news flash, you might make sure Rush, Beck and Hannity know about it, which would probably do more than another 200 posts. Just saying.

If this is true, it should be a MAJOR story!

The document, acquired by a well-placed US source, threatens to undermine US President Barack Obama's claim last week that all Americans were "surprised, disappointed and angry" to learn of Megrahi's release.

Humm I would guess that the state dept might have access to this letter. Gosh now zippy will have to worry all day today about what Beck will say tomorrow. Seriously though. This is way worse that Watergate imo. The msm has to wake up at some point and start shining light on this pile of excrement.

I read a few weeks ago that bo and this administration were informed every step of the way so I wondered then, where's the outrage??
This should wake up even the braindead.

Nah, I agree, Obama was caught in a lie and should be called on the carpet for it.

I worded my response poorly - I was referring to the heart of the matter - the convicted bomber’s actual guilt. I think a lot of people are just taking it as a matter of fact that the convicted bomber is guilty when in reality it appears far more likely that Iran was behind it. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/777589.stm

I just posted to ABC news and so should all of you . I dared them to report this story. Instead of posting to each other we need to take our rage to the media and others who oppose us. Go ahead folks . Writ to the MSM and tell them off. I just did . Lets apply pressure.
