Mr Obama had asked for $80 million from Congress to pay for relocating the 240 prisoners still held on the US naval base in Cuba, but Democratic senators joined Republicans in demanding that a clear plan for the closure be presented before they approved the money.
With American allies currently prepared to take more than a handful of the detainees, and others unwanted by their home countries, Republicans have successfully raised fears have that many will be freed into the US prisons or the public at large.

That is what is so funny about it.
I estimate that 25% of the radical left wing is tiring of this asshat.
Bluedogs have to really be upset.
Its time to call this jerk out.
He has done to much damage already.
“Snubbing Obama is really a lot of fun, Congress should try it more often.”
Sure, but was he really snubbed this time, or, instead, did Congress give him an easy way out.
Obama’s people are being very careful about making life easy for terrorists, as they know that a single bombing, linked to them letting the Muslim loose, will WRECK the Democratic Party for decades.
I think this is what he wanted. He ‘tried’ but the bad Congress wouldn’t fund it. He gets it both ways.
Obama won the responsibility of making certain the Constitution is upheld and defended against enemies both foreign and domestic by making sure that Constitutional laws are properly executed; if, however, he fails to do this and, instead, joins together with those who assault the Constitution and the nation it was meant to protect, he then becomes one of those enemies (in his case probably both foreign and domestic) even if he happens to have been elected president. Being elected president doesn't mean that the American people have ceded to him dictatorial powers to remake the United States and its government into whatever seems best to him.
LOOK at THOSE EARS!
Its like an ear version of waxmans nose!
Obama is a train wreck waiting to happen. “Obama’s People” can not derail it.

This will tactic will reproduce itself faster than the swineflu.
obambi will need to find a vaccine.......more stimulus.
...all these rats witholding the funds are doing him a favor....this way, he don’t look like he has a choice...now he can say he has to leave it like Bush had it....for now...and the real whacko lefties back off him...so he wins for now
Actually his ears remind me of that of a hyena.
We need to send him back to Kenya
Obama needs to be more sensitive to the needs of America’s enemies and fund them to a more comfortable spot.. I mean he promised them. (sarcasm)
He still wins on this politically.
Obama’s ears, Waxman’s nose, and the brain of Maxine Waters...egads..what have Democrats wrought
What’d yah know...”NOT IN MY BACK YARD” worked in OUR favor this time ;-)
It aint pretty...
NO ONE.. I mean NO ONE Wins all the time, not even Obama. Obama has not got the work ethic to win, he is a sluffer.
But-t-t-t Obama promised.
