The Obama administration and Congress are heading for a showdown over the president’s plan to close the prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and transfer its remaining terrorists abroad or to U.S. prisons.
Defense Secretary Ashton Carter announced last week that Pentagon assessment teams are looking at creating prisons for the terrorists at Leavenworth, Kansas, and Charleston, South Carolina, as well as other locations in supposedly "friendly" Middle East nations.
Releasing the terrorists to other nations is said by defense officials to be problematic and a cause of friction between the White House and Pentagon. Differences between the president’s advisers and former Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel ultimately led to Mr. Hagel’s ouster in February, according to defense officials.
Mr. Carter is facing similar pressure to release dangerous terrorists to the Middle East, many of whom have shown a determination to return to jihadi terrorism and even to lead terrorist groups.
“He doesn’t want his signature on the release of someone who is going to go out and kill Americans,” one official said of Mr. Carter.
The White House, led by National Security Adviser Susan E. Rice, is pushing to release Guantanamo prisoners as quickly as possible with less concern for what happens to them once they are put under the control of Middle East states.

Those transferred to the Middle East are, at a minimum, immediately in contact with other radicals, if not immediately back actively killing Americans.
Obama: Jihadism best friend in America.

Showdown? Hahaha. That’s pretty funny. Congress is a rubber stamp.
Obama just can’t wait to give terrorists access to the courts to make a mockery to our justice system.
Showdown with the RINOs is well we cannot shutdown the government. We did not have the votes. Maybe next time.
I’m cracking up too .... Oh, The Uncertainty!!

Ugggh ... Makes me sick
Showdown? Hahaha. That’s pretty funny. Congress is a rubber stamp.
You beat me to it. Congress is a joke.
Hitler and Stalin had their forms of Congress, too.
To take the theme from another thread, when Boehner and McConnell go talk to obama, they wear their pants down below their butts.
All it takes is 1 Obama appointed judge and........
Send ‘em to the fricken gallows!
Thought that was why Walmart closed some stores, presumably due to plumbing problems?

A WalMart in Kalispell MT closed for such...

We sent a terrorist to our White House six years ago; how much more harm can it do to send them to KS and SC? Personally, I'd like to send them all to TX on the first day of hunting season - limit ten per day, ten in possession, so that more Texans get a chance to take some down.
The One wants to close Gitmo and then hand over that base to Cuba — as a gesture of “good will” and “apology”.
Then Cuba can rent that base to Iran. With a missile base there, Iran won’t need any ICBMs to reach its targets in America.
