He’s probably going to try and make productive citizens out of them... perhaps they’ll get jobs at the IRS.
Guantanamo is more respected by Muslim radicals than gay marriage.
Benghazi in June. Sand, Sharia and .....
I love the Rubio commercial touting the proposed immigration bill.
He says that ‘undocumenteds’ will undergo background checks and pay a fine.
Huh? These people are here because they broke the laws of this country to begin with. So all of a sudden, they are all gonna start obeying any new laws that your gang of eight might get passed?
Pay a fine? Marco really does not know his target audience, does he...
...”the president .... to lift the prohibition on sending detainees to Yemen.”
...”the president .... is to set efforts to fight al Qaeda and its affiliates.”
Ugh? What an ‘insane’ contradiction!!!
This is not really a diversion, but rather, doing something that will go under the radar in the midst of these other scandals.
Dubya should have cut loose with military tribunals on these guys, with executions where appropriate. Housing these scum long term at Gitmo so they can wait around be released by a fool like Obama was always a losing proposition.
I think you’re right. I hear them mumbling. Of all the things they should be mumbling about . . . but no, he said he’d close Guantanamo.
And why to Yemen? The worst of the worst. The terrorists there will break them out of prison.
Two birds with one stoned . . . er, stone.
Plus there has been so much bleeding-heart nonsense SOMEWHERE in the leftist press about the hunger strikes. Probably Russian TV or the BBC. I hear it daily. How terrible force-feeding is weep weep.
The guy who started this hunger strike business is, I seem to recall, the worst of the worst of the prisoners.
“Well eventually find them on our streets.”

The prisoners will be released and get another chance at violence against the US. They need trials before a military commission, not transfers to the civil courts.
There are some who believe that the Benghazi 'protest' was engineered to take Amb. Stevens and staff hostage in order to trade them for terrorists in Guantanamo.
It appears the goal has been achieved (releasing/trading terrorists) anyway. Under the radar, so to speak.
Of course he will justify why it was necessary to kill American citizens to protect us from terrorism and why it is necessary to close Gitmo so it is no longer an issue that attracts more people to become terrorists and attack us.
Congress will be off next week so you can expect lots of Obama all day, all of the time. On Sunday he heads to Oklahoma to act as our national healer. Obama will be in campaign mode for the rest of his Presidency and thereafter. He will be a divisive and powerful political figure for decades.

Will he mention that the DRONE that was flying over Benghazi during the 'protests' and 'consulate attack' was ARMED ?
I agree. I’m not sure what got some of these guys to Gitmo in the first place. I’d have to think those just caught by association are long gone by now. The ones there should be fairly hard core. When warranted I certainly back execution. Where not, they’re exactly where they belong.
Was it? Do you have a source for that?
