Sounds like his mind was made up before he went by his boss, he got there and saw things were different than 0 thought, he has to cover that up.... and he doesn't have a clue what to do

Great to hear that our “shameful torturing” policies are starting to get the love they deserve from the messiah’s gang. /s/

Or maybe Holder was threatened with waterboarding?

"Fraunces Tavern is a restaurant and museum in lower Manhattan, New York City. It was built on the site of a former building which played a significant role in pre-Revolutionary activities, and in which, on 4 December 1783, General George Washington bade farewell to his officers at the end of the Revolution, before returning to his home, Mount Vernon."

"During the 1970s and 1980s, FALN members set off at least 138 bombs in five major U.S. Cities. Six Americans were killed in those attacks. One of those bombings, in January 1975, was at the historic Fraunces Tavern in lower Manhattan while patrons were at lunch. The explosion killed four and injured more than 50."

"Between 1974 and 1985 the FALN (Puerto Rican Armed Forces of National Liberation) organized 120 terrorist bombings in the United States. Many Americans were killed in those bombings, and many more were crippled. In 1983, another Puerto Rican terrorist group known as the Macheteros, attacked and robbed a Wells Fargo armored car in Connecticut. The Macheteros intended to use the money to finance a terrorist campaign against the United States. Working under the cover of Puerto Rican nationalism and claiming to act on behalf of the 'oppressed people of Puerto Rico,' the FALN and the Macheteros are nothing but Communist revolutionaries. Both groups were organized by Fidel Castro's secret police. The ultimate goal of the FALN and the Macheteros is the creation of an independent Marxist-Leninist dictatorship on the island of Puerto Rico."

So then, the esteemed Mr. Eric, Let me Pi$$ on that Copy of the Constitution for You, Citizen, Holder was just a-o-k with the “increased” level of abuse that has been occurring Mr. Obeyme took office as out Butthead in Chief?

You know, the extra abuse being heaped on the poor innocent prisoners by those evil jail-keepers who are “getting their licks in” before Gitmo close?

WHAT??? You mean he DIDN’T see any such abuse or even any evidence thereof? Wow. I wonder why? After all, he is such a brilliant man and a great prosecutorial investigator.

COULD IT BE? Could it be that the reason he didn’t see any abuse is because there is no abuse going on and there HAS BEEN no abuse going on? Golly! Who’d a thunk it?

[ADSUM]

Holder is still drinking the ‘kool-aid’.

What a coward!

[wita]

or moved to civilian criminal courts in the United States.

The fact that this point is even an option causes a certain feeling running up my leg.

There are two options, and only two. Hanging, or continued incarceration at Gitmo followed by military tribunal and hanging.

It remains open so the next batch of terrorists will have a safe haven prior to their military tribunal. It brings such joy to my heart to see the country run by people who do not even have a clue what is involved in the preservation of liberty and freedom.

In there minds, there is nothing in the past worth preserving. Unfortunately they will lead us to the point where even they will be forced to admit we were right and they were sadly mistaken. By then it just may be too late.

The DC law firm he left to become the AG (Covington and Burling) represents Gitmo “Detainees” (17 Yemeni and 1 Pakistani). http://michellemalkin.com/2009/01/23/pay-attention-to-eric-holders-law-firm-and-gitmo-detainees/

Since they donated money to the Dems, maybe now he has to figure out some way to repay them for their patronage (investment??), so they get to represent the scumbags in court. http://www.politicalbase.com/groups/covington-burling-llp/13316/

BOTH OBAMA AND OSAMA HAVE
FRIENDS WHO BOMBED THE PENTAGON
_________________________________________________________

From HumanEvents.com, April 29, 2008:
"By all accounts, he [Obama friend and associate, Bill Ayers] was a ferocious, violent, revolutionary Marxist in his halcyon days as a Weatherman leader. He and his Weatherman bombers were enamored of Ho Chi Minh, Che Guevara, Fidel Castro, Mao Tse-tung -- indeed, all the murderous heroes on the Left. Referring to the Weatherman members in August 1969, he said (according to the FBI): 'We’re revolutionary Communists.'

He got off on the group’s multiple explosions, too, and discusses them rather lovingly in his memoir.

Ideal Bombing Weather:
'Everything was absolutely ideal on the day I bombed the Pentagon,' he writes (although he concedes it was really a group effort). 'The sky was blue. The birds were singing. And the bastards were finally going to get what was coming to them.' (p. 256 in the 2003 edition.)

BOTH OBAMA AND OSAMA HAVE
FRIENDS WHO WANTED TO BOMB FORT DIX

From David Horowitz's FrontPageMag.com/DiscoverTheNetworks.org:
March 6, 1970: "three members of the Weather Underground accidentally killed themselves in a Manhattan townhouse while attempting to build a powerful bomb they had intended to plant at a social dance in Fort Dix, New Jersey -- an event that was to be attended by U.S. Army soldiers. Hundreds of lives could have been lost had the plot been successfully executed."

"The bomb was intended to be planted at a non-commissioned officer's dance at Fort Dix, New Jersey.
The bomb was packed with nails to inflict maximum casualties upon detonation."

Exclusive: Bill Ayers Talks About Election Night in Grant Park
[Obama win brings commie Ayers to tears!]

From NBC Chicago, Jan 21, 2009:

Bill Ayers was "overflowing with happiness, relief, love" when he and his wife went to Grant Park with tens of thousands of Chicagoans to celebrate the election of President Barack Obama.

Ayers and his wife, Bernardine Dohrn, spoke exclusively with NBC Chicago's Dick Johnson about why they joined the Election Night celebration in the park, where 40 years before they helped stage the Days of Rage riots.

The couple said they got last-minute tickets from a friend to be in Grant Park that night.

"I couldn't stop crying a couple of times. I found the exact spot where I was beaten 40 years ago," Ayers said. "But I've never been in a crowd that large that wasn't edged with either anger or drunkenness or gluttony, and it was really an extraordinary feeling."

“I hated Gitmo before I loved it.” Eric Holder

Nothing like releasing a bunch of cutthroats to make the world safer.

[Islander7]

Bringing these terrorist to US soil will make everyone far less safe!

[popdonnelly]

I’ve always thought Guantanamo was a great idea. Democrats went out of their way to make it sound like Auschwitz. Now that they’re running the show, it’s a good thing.

[mass55th]

"Sounds like his mind was made up before he went by his boss..."

I'm sure he had his marching orders from someone in the White House. It's the old government policy of "if it ain't broke, fix it anyway." I wonder how long it will take them to figure out what they're going to do with all of the terrorists in residence there. It's been what? a month already since they came out with their closure statement, and they still haven't figured out an exit plan for Gitmo.
