Obama AG Eric Holder Wants To Free Gitmo Terrorists In America
Start Thinking Right ^ | March 18, 2009 | Michael Eden

Want to live next door to an America-despising terrorist murderer? You're about to get your chance, thanks to President Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder:

Some Guantanamo prisoners could be released in U.S.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Some of the Guantanamo Bay prisoners could be released into the United States while others could be put on trial in the American court system, Attorney General Eric Holder said on Wednesday.

Holder, who was chosen by President Barack Obama to lead the administration's efforts to close the U.S. military prison at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba within a year, said the review of what to do with each of the prisoners had begun.

This news immediately follows Homeland Security director Janet Napolitano refusing to use the word "terrorism" in favor of the phrase "man-made disasters." The Obama administration wants to move "away from the politics of fear." Unless they can harness such fear to advance their own political agenda, that is (such as when Obama used the word "crisis" over 25 times in a single speech to fearmonger Americans into supporting his massive porkulus bill).

Demand trying terror suspects in American courts, where our intelligence professionals will face the Sophie's Choice of convicting terrorists only at the cost of exposing multi-billion dollar information collection methods? The result is, "Let them go."

And since no one ELSE is willing to take these psychotic monsters, let them live next door to some poor hapless American schmuck.

At least 61 - and as many as 102 - of the so-called "enemy combatants" held at Gitmo have returned to the battlefield as terrorists. And either figure represents a whopping percentage of Gitmo "releasees" (that's the new term to describe "detainee" in the Obama era) proving that they were dangerous all along.

Viewed in the very best possible light, our court system isn't able to decide the guilt or innocence of men who quite possibly committed vicious crimes against American soldiers or innocent civilians on foreign battlefields in foreign countries. But in the Obama abomination, that means they should be presumed innocent and released to pursue the American Dream (that is, of murdering Americans).

Fine. The Obamas aren't using that big old house in Chicago any more are they?

What about the Clintons pad in Nueva York?

I hear there are lots of empty homes in Dearbornistan.
Easy to slip in and out of Canada, too.

The Attorney General should resign.

The spirit of the point is good, but...

If Obama merely fired his staff, the head of the beast would survive to grow again.

This isn’t Holder’s fault; this is Obama’s fault. This is HIS policy.

Blame Obama; hold HIM responsible.

why not just in the WH...Oh wait, that was an episode of “24”...
Fantasy and reality are beginning to blur.

Wonder what a presser would be like for Holder if there was a terrorist going nuts here after release? Guess it would be a sequal video to “Girls Gone Wild”.....”Terrorists Gone wild in Ft Lauderdale!”

We can’t fire Obama for a few years, but if Obama were forced to fire his entire staff and start over, can you imagine how embarrassing that would be?

I think it’s even worse than that. It seems as if these people think nothing can ever happen, that the United States can never be defeated or can never be destroyed. So they continue to “play politics” and act in their political self-interests rather than for the United States. They think a genuine disaster could never happen.

We are spending money in such quantities and at such a rate that a future implosion is all but guaranteed. And now here we are playing the most dangerous games with terrorists for whom millions of casualties is a realistic goal.

I won’t breathe so much as a sigh of relief until Obama is gone.

As amazing as it is, I find myself praying for the health of Ruth Bader Ginsburg, because, as terrible a disgrace to justice as she has been, whoever Obama nominates will almost definitely be magnitudes worse.

It’s the same with Timothy Geithner. That tax cheat should never have been appointed to begin with, but now that he’s there, it’s hard to imagine Obama appointing someone BETTER; we’d likely get far worse.

In the case of Eric Holder, you may be right: there may not be anyone worse than that disgrace from the Clinton years.

I feel like that crying Indian from the 1970s environment commercials. I have watched the American people become increasingly amoral, self-absorbed, and narcissistic.

And as a result - and the whole “political correctness” factor - we’ve elected a President who will ruin us - and who may well WANT to ruin us.

And a Democratic Congress to go along with it.

One terrorist attack and we might be able to fire Obama - by way of impeachment for forsaking his sworn duty to protect the country.
