"With regard to those who you would describe as terrorists, we would not bring them into this country and release them, anyone we would consider to be a terrorist," Holder said.

He added the government has no plans to release anyone considered a terrorist in a foreign country, either.

Since no USA and no foreign country - I guess they stay at Gitmo and we need to keep it open.

OK, this is what he says. Now, let's see what they do (especially on the sly).

Obviously to Eric Holder there is no such thing as a terrorist.

Since 0bama and Holder and Napolitano don’t consider ANYONE to be TERRORISTS, they are have no troubles.

They also promise not to nationalize banks, the auto industry or healthcare.

They also promise not to raise taxes and make government more transparent.

Yes, let’s keep in mind that it depends on the meaning of the word “terrorist.” And the administration no longer uses that word. They are assymetrical personalities, or troubled foreign guests, or something like that.

They’re really parsing words now.

"The U.S. is a nation of cowards"

Attorney General Eric Holder

Maybe he should have said, "The Øbama Administration: a government of cowards."

If they don't have the courage of their convictions (no matter how wrong-headed those convictions are), they are even more beneath contempt than they were beforehand.

Guess they've now thrown Code Pink, A.N.S.W.E.R., the Quakers, PAW, and the other "close GITMO now" freaks under the bus. Øbama supporters should really be getting used to this by now!

I didn't go beyond the short paragraph above, but this appeared to me as perhaps a Holder "meaning of the word 'is' is..." moment. IE, it all depends on how one defines "terrorist".

The operative words in the article are:

“With regard to those who you would describe as terrorists, we would not bring them into this country and release them, anyone we would consider to be a terrorist,” Holder said.

Since Zero says there are no more acts of terrorism, only “man made disasters”, that means there are no more terrorists.

So all the Gitmo detainees can be brought here.

Ah, you forget: many of those at Gitmo are not “terrorists.”

They are merely innocent shepherds who were minding their flocks when the Bush/Cheney gestapo nabbed them and held them incognito because of their insane paranoia and fear of “the other.”

Holder is a bald-faced treasonous liar and NOT ONE MEDIA LAPDOG has called him on it.

They have already released a known terrorist from Club Gitmo back into the UK, where he is comfortably plotting heinous acts of violence against the infidels as he collects his welfare check in council housing. Can't remember the POS's name, but he was a co-conspirator with Jose Padilla.

Maybe if the Gitmo inmates were to promise to help ACORN with the Census, they could be set free.

No terrorists, but "man-caused disasterists" are more than welcome.

By redefining “terrorist” to “future Democrat”, he
sees no problem.

That depends on what their definition of a terrorist is. The new definition includes those who cling to their Bibles and guns, service members, and those who oppose the Obama policies.

The Islamic thugs who will behead you in a heartbeat with a dull knife or kill thousands? Not anymore.

So, what are they planning on doing with them once they shut down GITMO?!

I don’t believe him!
