Dick Cheney expressed this same concern. But he was insulted by the Left for stating this.
I think Dick Cheney should take credit for getting Obama to reverse his course
This had nothing to do with Obama’s concern for the safety of US soldiers or protection of the US.
It had more to do with a realization of certain Chicago thugs that the CIA has access to a whole host of information and evidence on one’s past activity and documents from around the world. Enemies - foreign and domestic usually only means Republicans being elected at the politically correct CIA. Obama really stepped in it to piss off his own party’s agency!
