gosh, that’s refreshing!

let’s invite some over for dinner.

[HighlyOpinionated]

Fine. I guess the sitting president will treat them to a sit-down dinner that he did NOT have for the British PM.

[Hazwaste]

The ultimate result of Obama’s changes to this country’s treatment of terrorism will be the smoldering ruins of the cities which formerly contained most of his constituents.

[FlingWingFlyer]

The should start calling them American Idol contestants. That shouldn't "offend" them. I hate it when we offend terrorists.

The Obama administration stopped calling...

What the current presidential administration cares to label something doesn't carry any legal weight. This ain't the intellectual vacuum of the Harvard Law Review.

[FlyingEagle]

Yeah they are no longer enemy combatants

they just have an alternative lifestyle

[Ron in Acreage]

They are now referred to as “cabinet nominees”.

[givemELL]

Only until a few seconds after their release.

[Dionysius]

Being this is the new world of Obama, I think we should call them “friends we haven’t made yet”.

[Gator113]

Hmmmm What to call them?

-Obama’s pals.
-Friends of Obama.
-Displaced democrats.
-Disciples of Obama.

The possibilities are endless.

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

From the Minister of Justice Eric Holder”:

You may now call those held illegally at Guantanamo either “possible bad guys” or “innocent tourists who like to visit Taliban and Al Qaeda recreational retreats.”

You will, or else!

[ConservativeColumns]

Ha that’s good. Or “misguided young men.”

[EternalVigilance]

Guantanamo inmates no longer "enemy combatants"

Yeah. They're now referred to as "naughty little boys."

A few stern words and off to bed with no supper.

I'm POSITIVE they'll be "good little boys" by tomorrow!

Then again, that might be too harsh...

[bgill]

Will Hussein invite them all up to the WH for a nice Easter ham?

[rcrngroup]

......the smoldering ruins of the cities which formerly contained most of his constituents

Putting it that way in that case.....

"That shouldn't "offend" them. I hate it when we offend terrorists."

Me too. I much prefer it when we render them incapable of taking offense.

[ZirconEncrustedTweezers]

“Friends of Obama”

I like this one. We can call them FOOs for short.

[PackerBoy]

Friends of Osama/Guests of Obama ???

[papasmurf]

How ‘bout we call them unidentified human remains number 10,231 of 4,000,000.
