Legal scholar John Yoo writes in Thursday’s edition of The Wall Street Journal that Barack Obama’s executive order giving new rights to the illegal combatants housed at Guantanamo Bay is a dangerous threat to national security that has “opened the door to further terrorist attacks on U.S. soil.”
He continues, “It is naive to say, as Obama did in his inaugural speech, that we can reject as false the choice between our safety and our ideals. That high-flying rhetoric means that we must give al Qaeda — a hardened enemy committed to our destruction — the same rights as garden variety criminals, at the cost of losing critical intelligence about real, future threats. Government policy choices are all about trade-offs, which cannot simply be wished away by rhetoric.”

How stupid would a terrorist be to attack us now. With Obam in office and libs running the Congress they can sit back ..Smoke a little Hashish and watch Obama destroy the Enemy. US! Won’t happen.
Well, duh......
Kinda what I think. Wait 8 1/2 years, and the nuke will be the Republican’s fault.
Are Obama and the Democrats dangerous?
I don’t think they’ll attack now, either, because they certainly don’t have to lift a little finger to take over with Bambi in the WH. He’s probably warming up the prayer rug for them.
Obama reminds me of a guy in a boat with 5 holes and one cork.
We can only hope it will be directed directly at the White House while the o is playing with his blackbery
All the "Three Stooges" (Pelosi, Reid and Obama Hussein) are going to do is give the sheeple a false sense of security and open the doors for AQ to do their will.
All we can do is say Remember 9/11/01, never forget the lessons.

Al Queda is not known for it’s deep understanding of U.S. politics.
In reference to the title: Well DUH!
It takes some egghead until now to come to that conclusion?
