Hey, Obama! How’s it feel when the shoe is on the other foot? How do you like being the guy that has to execute laws other people pass?

“The risk assessment may not be a difficult hurdle”

“certification from the attorney general that the individual poses little or no security risk”

I think the risk assessment is a big hurdle. What attorney general will want to make that certification.

Mr. Morissey:

You seem to be forgetting one tenet of the Obama Administration – The rules do not apply to them. They will do what they want and stonewall any investigations.

With a Democratic majority in Congress and a compliant mediathere is little chance of any change.

I am sorry but for seven years Old Europe claimed that we were housing harmless carpet salesmen and camel drivers imprisoned wrongfully by the eeevil booooosh administration and that these countries would be happy to have these prisoners so that GITMO could be closed. They knew Bush wouldn’t close GITMO nor transfer the prisoners to Europe, so this was a self righteous double bump for the Euros. However, when Obama got elected the scales fell from these twisted Euros eyes and now all of a sudden these detainees aren’t the innocents that the Euros claimed they were, all of a sudden Booosh was right and they had to be detained, far away from Europe.Obama the ignorant took the Euros at their word for their pronouncements during the evil boooosh administration, and tried to hand these terrorists off to Europe only to find that there were no open hands there only clenched fists. So Obama can’t do the reckless thing that he wanted to do and must bribe other countries to take them.

To the far left this new prez must be starting to look like real loser because… Bush’s war effort is still the best option.

Wow. Does this mean that Bush built Gitmo for purely practical reasons, not because he had a yearning to imprison brown-skinned people of a different religion from himself?

OMG, OMG, my lefty world is falling in. /sarc

Yea and don’t you love that this happened a day after Bush made the comment about closing it being a mistake? hahaha

The problem with Gitmo is all the terrorists living there.

This is a problem that is easy to solve.

Congress: Not so fast on closing Gitmo

I have to really laugh at the stupidity of the left on Gitmo. Hey dumbo pendejos, the round wheel has all ready been invented, and so have why Guantanamo has been used as a prisoner of war detention center. The first flash on your thought pattern should be, we’re a nation still at war with a ruthless enemy, then start thinking from there.

Just another “Friday Misdirection”. BOBO can now throw Congress under the wheels of the bus and say It’s not my fault. Bush did it…Oh, can’t say that no more! The wheels on the bus go round and round. They are flip flopping so fast they are almost becoming Transparent. /sarc

Exactly. And he was right to bring democracy to Iraq. Look at Iran.

If he only hadn’t panicked with the TARP bailouts…

Gitmo is one of the things dragging Obama’s poll numbers down.It’s having the same effect as “gays in the military” had on Clinton.The American people clearly don’t think its a good idea to release terrorists in America. If the GOP is smart they will feature the Bermuda Uighurs in campaign commercials next year.Caption could read: Trained terrorists living the good life on your tax dollars courtesy of President Obama.

Some of us had the benefit of schooling in New England. The Veterans came home and told us what they had seen and defeated. Sadly schools now waste time on BS. The other thing we observed about Yankees are the high poly sylabic verbal skills. Long speeches and large words seem to be the stock in trade of Madison Ave and Hollywood. However BS is still BS even if it takes a thousands words to say nothing.COngress needs to micro manage the Hell outa the won.

Bam could care less about Gitmo. It’s a win for him either way. He can say I signed an order to close it, but Congress didn’t give me the money to do it. Keeps his nuts happy and keeps the terrorists where they belong, behind bars in Gitmo. It’s all a game with him.
