Obama Issues Directives on Detainees, Interrogation, Guantanamo (Abortion too)

WASHINGTON -- President Obama, putting his executive pen in his left hand to overrule eight years of Bush administration policy, signed "several" executive orders Thursday, including ones affecting national security and abortion.

The national security orders mandate that interrogation techniques in the Army Field Manual be used by all intelligence and law enforcement services; call for a task force to look at closing the detention center in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, within the year; and order a strategy be developed for handling detainees in the future. The presidential directive also orders a stay in the case of Ali Al-Marri, the only person being held by the military as an enemy combatant on U.S. soil.

Sorry bud, I taped it but haven’t converted or posted it.

If it isn’t up by tomorrow morning, I’ll produce it and put it on YouTube.

You’ll be amazed at the gibberish the guy spouts while signing. At one point he asked Craig what the ramifications of what he is signing actually were.

You can’t make this stuff up. He’s talking about a move that will see some terrorists released, one not prosecuted because of supposed torture, and still others moved to the U.S. and tried in our open courts. All this in the name of better security. The double-speak would be grounds for college courses for the next thousand years.

He basically cast the former administration as a bunch of torturous thugs, our nation a nation which had lost it’s soul.

Once again, the ten year old mentality takes over.

Clinton at least acted like a 14 year old. Obama is stuck on ten.

Greg Craig, the man behind the screen, drafting “Executive Orders” to shut down Gitmo and telling O what to say about it and where to sign

Once (?) a paid Counselor of Fidel Castro

Well, the terrorists needed hope, after all...

As as for the babies, the hope for the terrorists had to come from somewhere.

And so, the people who put pocketbook before Country and morality will now face the wrath of God.

McCain wouldn’t be lifting Bush EO’s TODAY and replacing them with new ones funding abortion TODAY while there are 300,000 demonstrating for Right to Life Day

McCain wouldn’t be sitting in front of the world media stammering about his constitutional power and asking Castro’s former attorney what he is signing and where to sign it

Texas should just pull the trigger and secede. I’ll move there in a heartbeat.

I am literally sick to my stomach. The terrorists are now laughing at us along with the mullahs.

And being in NYC it’s time to get the hell away from ground zero.

When it hits, the only advantage we may have is that Western Europe, re: Rome gets hit first.

The mullahs will move their other atomic weapons to a terrorist group to barge right to Manhattan.

And we will sit by and try not to get the truth out of one of their minions when the clock is counting down.

After the fall of the Soviet Union, this again proves the Rats have learned nothing.

I have no idea where this came from, all I know is it has been around for years..I know it was around during the Clinton years because I got that copy..I really think it is a joke, but all true about Texas could survive without the rest of the country..I agree we should all stand together and fight..

That the guy could attend a church like this should have told us more than we needed to know. Well, it did us, but evidently there are many in our nation who didn’t have the tools to grasp it.

> Please note that Texas is the only state with a legal right to secede from the Union . (Reference the Texas-American Annexation Treaty of 1848.)

This is an urban legend that has been traveling around for a long, long time.
