I dunno, but at least they recycled Michelle Obama's dress for the drapes...

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.

It’s a dark day in our nation. No doubt about it...
I agree that it is all true. I appreciate your response. We’re in agreement here. I’m glad we are.
“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”
Precisely. We all know that McCain leans to the left. That is no secret, but Obama and his comrades have formed another aisle altogether.
McCain/Palin would have been far better for this country than Obama/Biden. Our new administration has brought a new low to the office with all of it’s stammering words, classless, inept incompetence.
The logo shouldn’t be an ‘O’. It should be a shoe, because they’re usually sticking it in their mouths.
I am relieved to know that my confidence rests in our Almighty, and not clowns parading as leaders.
So there’s no difference between Obama and McCain policies?
Soon, they will have the opportunity to regroup and reprovision. Less information about their plans will be forthcoming...and the consequences of all that will rest heavily and directly on this man's shoulders and on the shoulders of those who supported him and kept a true vetting of him to occur before the American people.

I thought the orders regarding the release of former presidential records was interesting. It's so easy for a guy who knows he's gonna be the last American president....
I couldn’t agree more Jeff. I appreciate the links. Thanks.
If you knew that an individual had vital information about the empending murder of your own innocent child, innocent from any knoweldge or involvement in whatever cause the perp had taken up...to what lengths would you go to get that information?
Now, think about this, who would be willing to keep you from going to those lengths to obtain such critical information? The answer to the second is equally obvious. The only people willing to stop you would be either the people in league with the one you are holding, or those who loved that person like a family member and had no care whatsoever for your own.
Who are the people of the United States in this scenario? Who is Obama in this scenario?
Remember what that Russian professor said about the United States breaking apart by 2010?
Florida could be self sufficient for the same reason.
I’d like to know the names of the “General Officers” standing behind the President during the signing. I’ll bet most of them were staff weenies.
Once again, I agree Jeff. This is so elemental. It shocks me to think anyone could fail to see what Obama is doing is wrong.
I dunno, but at least they recycled Michelle Obama's dress for the drapes...
I had that same thought. Wasn’t that Westley Clark on the right? It thought I saw him.
Obama is being lied to IMO. I don’t believe those prisoners are being tortured. I don’t believe a large number of active military were pleading with him to close Gitmo. I don’t believe Obama is being truthful either.
yes but also phony has made it known he will over turn the don ask don’t tell along with ignoring states laws by throwing out DOMA.
He will make abortion more available
so what we have here is abortion on a bigger scale
homo’s openly in the military and homo’s to marry in every state along with getting benefits
those who plan to kill us are to come here and enjoy American civil rights
Not a bad two days thus far for the Marxist.
He cares more of what muslim countries and homo’s think of us than what is good for the country.
Seems he forgot he is president of America not the world, still like he said in his speech we are a country of many including non believers and we want the muslims world to know we are here for them.
Just wait till he orders open borders for those in Africa and the middle east.
So far, the only real voices of dissent are from terrorism experts and common folks like us who rely on rational thought.
hey take the south and midwest with you.
All yankee liberals are shipped out too.
Lincoln was presiding over a war.
phony like to think of himself as Lincoln
Maybe history will repeat itself

If he gets rid of state laws and throws out DOMA then we’ll see where that goes.
Besides the north east liberals are totally different anyway,we;ll take all conservatives from there but those republicans who want homo’s abortion illegal immigration, be soft on child molesters can forget coming here
