Two parts of the Obama administration are giving conflicting reports on the dangers posed by terrorist detainees to Congress and the U.S. courts, executive branch sources tell HUMAN EVENTS.
In effect, the Obama administration is keeping two sets of books on the terrorist prisoners.
According to rules established earlier this year, the Obama administration is required to send Congress notification of its intent to move or release any inmates at the Guantanamo Bay, Cuba facility at least fifteen days before the action is accomplished.
These notifications, called “risk assessments,” were supposed to give members of Congress sufficient information for them to determine whether the move of any of the Gitmo inmates to their states or districts would pose a danger to the public. And the notice was supposed to be sufficiently in advance of the action to allow Congress to act to block it.
Now, according to sources who have requested anonymity, we can report that the Obama administration -- through the State Department, which is preparing the congressional notices -- is apparently manipulating the intelligence and other evidence to sanitize the Congressional notifications.
Our sources say that the State Department is intentionally omitting any information about the detainees derived from intelligence, saying it isn’t “evidence” against them. As a result, State is sanitizing the notices and presenting Congress with false findings that there is little danger posed by the detainees.

IMPEACH OBUMMER!
He’s in full retreat on the public option...a show of failure on his part.
Now he needs a “wag the dog” moment, and this is it.
At this rate can Bummer make everybody in Washington his enemy before 2010?
Obama Lies....A Nation Dies.
I never dreamed that in my life time I would see a worse president than Carter. I was wrong.
LYING..! Hmmm...! TWO SET OF BOOKS...!!! Politicizing intelligence...!!!
Fortunately, our side still has an ability to speak, publish and broadcast.
Obama told another lie, what else is new?
______________________
Muslums are required to lie and deceive. You’re right; what else in new.
Treasonous activities abound with this inept criminal administration!
Lets call it what it really is... HIGH TREASON!
Tick.....Tock....
The list, ping
I never dreamed I would see a president who makes Carter look like a successful, competent, honest statesman.
But just you wait. Probably tomorrow, staunch Republicans like Cantor and Demint will be right out there denouncing all this. They’ll even go on Hannity’s show and raise a big stink, just you watch. Ultimately, they’ll do nothing about it, but they’ll be real mad on TV, just you watch.
In the old days this would be called treason.
Sanitize the intel for Congress to legislate the outcome while creating political cover from within the ‘courts’.
Closest thing to ‘triangulation’ I have seen thus far out of the Bamamites.
Can anyone name ONE thing he has actually told the truth about? From Birth on?
And what will congress do? Nothing.
