Does anyone have information on the 13 inmates released or the investigation that are discussed in the post? The article referenced in the post mentions one specifically where a prisoner was released....But I wonder about the other 12, or even the one released for that matter. Since that is really the only evidence the writer offers to support barack’s decision, it would be interesting to see how valid it is....I just love when a leftist editorial cites as fact another leftist editorial.
