A former Army Muslim chaplain at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, who was cleared of spy accusations is now a Democratic National Convention delegate pledged to Sen. Barack Obama.
Former Capt. James J. Yee was among the delegates who were elected by precinct representatives Saturday at the party's 9th Congressional District convention at North Thurston High School.
Others chosen at the gathering were Zach Smith, a former supporter of ex-Sen. John Edwards who is now pledged to Clinton, and Natalie Stevens, an alternate pledged to Obama.
Yee, a West Point graduate, was accused in 2003 of being part of a spy ring at the U.S. prison for suspected terrorists in Guantanamo Bay. He spent 76 days in solitary confinement before being exonerated and later resigned from the Army, receiving an honorable discharge.
Yee now lives with his wife and daughter in Olympia, south of Fort Lewis, where he was assigned before and after his ordeal.
The experience left him as "living proof that civil liberties have been eroded since 9/11," Yee told The Olympian newspaper on Monday.
He said that during the gathering Saturday, "I came out and basically reiterated that Sen. Obama is really the only candidate that consistently campaigns on rejecting torture without exception, on closing Guantanamo Bay, restoring habeas (corpus) and adhering to the Geneva Conventions."

Obama the Post Turtle
While suturing a cut on the hand of a 75 year old Texas rancher, whose hand was caught in a gate while working cattle, the doctor struck up a conversation with the old man.
Eventually the topic got around to Barack Obama and his bid to be our President.
The old rancher said,"Well, ya know, Obama is a 'post turtle'."
Not being familiar with the term, the doctor asked him what a 'post turtle' was.
The old rancher said,"When you're driving down a country road and you come across a fence post with a turtle balanced on top, that's a 'post turtle'."
The old man saw a puzzled look on the doctor's face, so he continued to explain.
"You know he didn't get up there by himself, he doesn't belong up there, he doesn't know what to do while he is up there, and you just want to help the dumb azz get down."
Obama.... How did you get to that post? How did you get the nomination of the Democratic Party to run for President? Who brought you, who sponsored you? Change to what?
Besides the Muslim Chaplin from Oregon, how many of your crowd in Oregon were Muslims?
Awesome video:
The same kind of terrorists who support Obama did this:

Never apologize for them.
Never appease them.
Never forget.
How would Mohammed vote?

Obama Delegate Yusuf Yee or James J. Yee....When returning from duty at the Guantanamo Bay Naval Base, he was arrested on September 10, 2003, in Jacksonville, Florida, when a U.S. Customs agent found a list of Guantanamo detainees and interrogators among his belongings. He was charged with five offenses: sedition, aiding the enemy, spying, espionage, and failure to obey a general order. These charges were later reduced to mishandling classified
Obama is a magnet for every enemy of America.
I remember this case ... and I remember being SO friggin’ p!$$ed off with the outcome.
Obama Change is hell!
That is why Obama has the Hamas "Seal of Approval"
Tragically, a lot of this kind of thing has been going on within our Armed Forces and Pentagon, where for political correct reasons we have allowed some sappers inside the perimeter.
Going back to the eve of the Iraq war this was so when the Black Muslim sergeant, Hasan Akbar, fragged the C&C tent the night of the invasion. Idaho lost its first soldier, Major Gregory L. Stone, that night. (The Muslim soldier was convicted and sentenced to death...he should have been summarily executed on the battlefield IMHO.)
And these are the types that gravitate to Obama.
Little wonder.
He was found working for the ENEMY, with classified info that never should have left Guantanamo, but he slithers away with an honorable discharge and is now another leftist hack for Obambi?? What a screwed up country!
What a pose! Looks like he is saying hah I’m superior to you and watch me corroborate with the enemy right under your face to do you in!! Gee, do the democrats have no standard that they let this guy be a delegate!!
Just because they let liars, appeasers, traitors, and enemy collaborators become delegates doesn’t mean you should say they don’t have any standards. Those are their standards.
LMAO
How on Earth did this idiot become a delegate. What is wrong with this? I can’t believe a trator is a delegate.
This is wrong.
