MCLEAN, Virginia - The federal government's most secure prison has determined that two books written by President Barack Obama contain material "potentially detrimental to national security" and rejected an inmate's request to read them.
Ahmed Omar Abu Ali is serving a 30-year sentence at the federal supermax prison in Florence, Colorado, for joining al-Qaida and plotting to assassinate then-President George W. Bush. Last year, Abu Ali requested two books written by Obama: "Dreams from My Father" and "The Audacity of Hope."

HE is a danger to our national security! The enemy in the seat of power! National suicide by the electorate.

Electing a man that is friends with domestic terrorists, the Nation of Islam, Black Panthers, George Soros and a veritable zoo full of assorted crazies and communists? Never happen, we’d have shouted!
Random thoughts as Thomas Sowell would say.
1) Why are supermax inmates allowed to request specific reading material?
2) I haven’t read any of O’s crap books, but I can’t see how anything in them would constitute a threat to national security unless someone actually believed what the books said. I’m sure there’s no classified material in there.

Probably has encoded in its writings instructions for jihad. Kinda like BBC's "John has a long mustache" before D-Day.
I wondered if you caught this.. (As if al-qaida hasn’t already read them) wonder what they have asked for and did receive.
Makes me wonder two things. One, there’s some information on those pages that shouldn’t be there. Or two, someone is trying to pump up O’s book sales again. The whole thing is kind of strange.
Does anyone know what specifically is in the book that could be considered a national security threat?
