Obama Failure: Guantanamo Bay Not Closing – Time To Blame Someone

Another epic failure?

President Obama never had a plan to close Camp Delta, the detainee facility for the worst of the worst terrorists in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. Like many liberals, he felt it was the right thing to do, made a big deal about the issue during the campaign, and kicked off his term by committing to close the facility in one year. Epic Fail.

If Bush hadn’t opened the camp, there’d be no need to close it. That’s the ticket!

See what he said in March about this. http://www.andyworthington.co.uk/2009/05/21/transcript-of-president-obamas-speech-about-guantanamo-and-terrorism-may-21-2009/

Notable excerpts are:
“I have studied the Constitution as a student; I have taught it as a teacher; I have been bound by it as a lawyer and legislator. I took an oath to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution as Commander-in-Chief, and as a citizen, I know that we must never — ever — turn our back on its enduring principles for expedience sake.”

together with this one:”As I said, I am not going to release individuals who endanger the American people.”

We have grounds for impeachment should one American life be lost due to Obama’s handling of terrorists.

and one more:
“I ran for President promising transparency, and I meant what I said. That is why, whenever possible, we will make information available to the American people so that they can make informed judgments and hold us accountable.”

If he truly wishes transparency, he should be pounding the Congressional Dems to allow public access to the healthcare bill which nobody has read.

A failure and liar as President.

Bush didn’t open it, it was established as a US Naval Base in 1898. I believe a DemoCratic President was in office at the time.
