Ah, yes, he’s going to issue an executive order to shut down Gitmo, eventually, like sometime when it isn’t needed anymore.

This is just another present vote to make it look like he is keeping his campaign promise.

IMO this is what it looks like so far as well. I think once you start to get intelligence briefings and such, your whole outlook on certain issues becomes blurred ...

Obama obviously had no idea that amount of issues and threats he was going to deal with ... He got in over his head IMO.

If Obama does indeed close down Gitmo upon his first 5 days in office ...

Well stupid is as stupid does ...

He explained his position to Stephanopolous on Sunday. He said, exactly what you said, that after looking at the issue more closely he sees that there is an awful lot involved with it, like the fact that no one wants these prisoners and it will take a long time to figure out what to do with them.

Obama wasn’t interested in the WOT, torture, or any foreign policy issue, and he didn’t really know much about any of it. All Obama was interested in was getting power, power to change the system from capitalism to socialism. He used everyone, every special interest group, every minority, for just that purpose. Some of those groups aren’t going to get what they want and some of them aren’t going to like what they get.

I think that some of those groups aren’t even going to like what they’ve been asking for.
