Return of the Rule of Law

The image speaks for itself. So far, Obama is putting his executive order where his mouth is, signing memorandums ordering the closing of Guantanamo within a year, reviving the Freedom of Information Act, and reversing legislation that prevented foreign governments accepting US aid for family planning from providing assistance for abortion services. Let's hope this is just the beginning of a new era in which the rule of law prevails, human rights come first, accountability is the standard and the US is a less bombastic and more respected partner on the international scene.
