Closing the detention center at the Guantanamo Bay Naval Station in Cuba was one of President Obama's most passionate campaign promises. But finding places to move the prisoners has delayed implementation of that pledge, which is now called a "goal." The facility was opened under President Bush as a place to hold terrorists -- and suspected terrorists -- captured by coalition forces in the administration's war against terror. Some of them have been held without formal charges for years.Now, are't you glad you elected this man as president?!?

We acted like the people we clain to detest, arresting people with out warrents, depriving them of legal counsel, never being formally charged, tourtured, all in the name of american justice, just like Iran, China and North Korea. If we support the over throw of these govenments because we dislike them, why shouldn't we expect the victums of the Bush administration to think like widw about us.

They need to be treated just like any other person who aids criminal behavior. It is called an accomplice.

December 08 2010 at 11:35 AM Report abuse Permalink +15 rate up rate down ReplyWe send young men into battle to catch our enemies only to have liberal judges and media propaganda set them free to do us more harm. The biggest terrorists are in our own country. They are liberals and progressives disguised as the state run media, most judges, The ACLU, most college professors, most union leaders, and most politicians. Outside our borders, they are called the United nations. Until we wake up and get rid of political correctness, start jailing our politicians for their failures, lies and crimes against the people, start racial profiling, we will continue on this downward spiral into oblivion. We will be exterminated. We will continue to radiate(poison) ourselves if we need to travel or expose ourselves to ilegal searches via the TSA. Our rights are dissapearing right before our eyes and we sit back and do little to stop it.
