Senator Rockafeller head of the Senate intelligence committee says he was told weeks ago.

[Paleo Conservative]

Can you say "Taqiyya"? I knew that you could.

[Pistolshot]

I'm sure he is upset too.

Toto is also dismayed.

[kabar]

Right, so we must ask the question as to why the USG remained silent before the release? Obama and Congress should have expressed outrage publicly before the release.

[Jeff Chandler]

After being back on their heels for eight years, Islam is once again on the march.

The American people voted for CHANGE, and CHANGE they will get.

[edcoil]

You really don’t need to ask to you.

[Travis McGee]

Eleven days in jail per murder.

[kabar]

No, it was a rhetorical question.

[SES1066]

I have been told that the Koran says that lying to non-Muslims is not a sin. Too bad Kenny didn’t have the proper negotiator working for him. Enjoying your new work week yet, Mr. Justice Minister?

[RinaseaofDs]

Actually, the point is that Hillary and Obama knew, and said it was OK.

That’s the news here.

[vetvetdoug]

Muslims are liars. What part of this does the West or Scots (for that matter) not understand? Islam is not a religion of peace, Islam is not a religion that encourages love and understanding, and Islam is nothing but a Satanic based cult. Maybe when he's being sodomized by a Muslim, McCaskill may understand the truth.

[NativeNewYorker]

The really BIG STORY here is that the UK and US governments knew about this release weeks ago. When is someone going to ask Obama why he elected to remain silent while this planned release was in the works?

Yes indeed.

[Utilizer]

I dunno about him, but I certainly am. Besides, having dated some truly gorgeous Russian women I have developed a definite taste for wodka these days. *grin* Have to admit I’ll miss the stuff, especially the hundred-and-forty year-old bottle that was gifted to Me. Maybe I’ll just tell her I finished it if she asks...

[Mac from Cleveland]

We ought to fire up a few B52s and give him, and his scummy ilk, a bunker bustin’ American salute.......

[GOPJ]

He wouldn't be suffering from prostate cancer if they had put him to death like they should have...

[driftdiver]

Well I guess its ok then, after all they promised.

Never mind that the scum who murdered 270 people was let out of jail after serving 8 years.

[driftdiver]

So does that mean they have to tell the truth to BO

[liberateUS]

"I may even be prepared to give up Scotch tape!!!"

On behalf of Pennsylvania, I'm ready to boycott a certain Scottish senator. I know it's tough, but someone has to do it!

[Oztrich Boy]

When is someone going to ask Obama why he elected to remain silent while this planned release was in the works?

The bigger question is when is someone going to ask him why he didn't remain silent.

It is just possible that the no-celebration deal had been made and might have been followed through

But when the Leader of the Free World then publicly orders a Third World Strongman NOT to do something, one of them is going to lose face.

[kabar]

Obama didn’t make a statement until after the release. Frankly, I am more concerned about the release than I am the celebration that followed. al-Megrahi should never had been released and Obama could have used the bully pulpit to have the decision reversed.
