Surely there’s some reason he’s got to have to spin the American public, no?

Not necessarily. Maybe he considers himself SO powerful that it doesn't matter what any of us think of his decisions. After all, in his mind he WON, so he thinks he can do whatever he wants.

Apparently the Bush admin. also "dropped charges" in several Gitmo cases as a procedural move before reinstating them.

From WaPo: "The tactic was also used by the Bush administration when it wanted to stop various proceedings in Guantanamo. The Pentagon has dismissed without prejudice charges in six cases, and reinstated them later in three of those cases."

I think those here thinking he's just letting this guy go because he wants everybody to know he hates America and the military and loves terrorists need to take a chill pill. He's not that stupid.

He is going for all he can in as short a time as possible. Unbelievable.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Tgis along with every thing else he is doing amounts to a socialist coup on America. It is taking the shape of a fascist coup.

At this pace of events, one wonders what the end point will be. Will the Dems fianlly wake up as Americans and revolt?

Not Likely.

What about the rest of the country?

American patriots will not just sit back and take this.

So what is Obama trying to do, polarize the nation for a showdown?

Saul Alinsky seems to be very much alive here.

I believe Obama wants riots in the streets. Things are going to get ery UGLY from here on out.

Impeachment is a distinct possibility, or worse.

“Can you imagine what he (and his rat buddies) will have engineered (or tried to) in four years if he and they have instigated this much change and caused this much turmoil and outrage in just two weeks???!!!!!”

That’s exactly what I’m thinking. I am truly lost as to an answer.

Thank you for posting the names of these brave men!

It brought the tears and the prayers to the surface. That’s all we can do now I suppose...is weep for our country and pray.

The move is being done to stop the continued prosecution of al-Nashiri in a court system that his administration may ultimately find illegitimate, not for any other reason, sources told ABC News.

Hm. Funny how the sources went out of their way to say that.

OK, I can buy your scenario, but why does Rangel want a draft for the military. What’s the point?

“THE GOON IS THE ANTI-CHRIST, PLAIN AND SIMPLE”

I agree.
There are many labels to put on this swine.
Traitor, Muslim garbage, illegal alien, liar,..list goes on and on..
But I swear, if I'm not watching the Anti-Christ, then he certainly is leading the way in.
I used to laugh when I heard people say he was it, but I'm not laughing anymore.
The blinders people have on when watching this sack of garbage, is a huge sign for me.
Praying.

“I suppose the public can finally see and think straight concerning the decisions he’s making.”

We can only hope so.

Interesting train of thought. It’s as though he’s being an extra “in your face” a**h*** on purpose. Remember him grabbing the shoulder of the reporter who dared to - ! - as a question! I watched the video, his body language and tone and facial expression were so hard, so angry and vicious it was hard to even watch. Well, I never watch him (no TV) - just seeing his face is a hard thing to do.

IMO the man is straight up evil with nothing diluting it. He wants a fight.

This is simply a move of jaw-dropping political ineptitude. If, in fact, it is nothing more than sanctimonious posturing then I'd have to suspect whoever gave him this advice of attempting to undercut his administration before it even gets out of the gate. If there is a more or less legitimate legal ploy behind it, it's still going to make Bambi look too clever by half.

He doesn't get it. Yes, the families of the Cole are going to be insulted, but so is every sailor who ever put on the uniform. Every servicemember. I'd better shut up now because I'm so mad I can hardly type and if I keep it up I'll end up banned.

I’m almost sick to my stomach. My God what have we allowed to sit in our White House? My heart breaks for out brave troops. They must feel lost.

Of the Cole victims, 5 were black.

Thanks for letting me know. :)

They were irked that Obama didn’t address swift justice for the 9/11 plotters... Irked? IRKED! If one of my loved ones had been slaughtered by those Islamofascists, and the new prez of my country was getting them off the hook, irked would hardly begin to describe the rage in one pinky, let alone the rest of me. Sheesh!

Good post. You are so spot on! He doesn’t care about this country or our troops and the people trying to say Bush ‘did the same thing’ just don’t get it!

WE TRUSTED BUSH IN THE WOT! WE KNEW HE WAS NOT GOING TO ALLOW A FILTHY TERRORIST, THAT KILLED US SOLDIERS OR AMERICAN CITIZENS, TO GET OFF SCOT FREE!

WE DON’T TRUST OBAMA! WE KNOW WHAT KIND OF MAN HE IS!

That is how I see it... notice not a single elected repubic has said a word. How long do you think it would have taken howeird dean to have beaten President Bush to a pulp in the press, if he had done something tantamount to this? How long would it have taken 'toon to blast Bush from some foreign Capital? Where is steele? Where is mitch mcconnell? Where is Boehner?

I doubt he will be impeached. He is fulfilling the Leftist America-Hating Agenda perfectly.
