President Obama said he'll seek the repeal of provisions in the new defense authorization bill barring the transfer of terrorist suspects to the U.S. for civilian trials.
Obama said he had signed the defense authorization bill despite its inclusion of a measure barring the use of funds to transfer prisoners away from the detention center at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, for trials in the U.S.

I thought it was unconstitutional, but I signed it, anyway.
Not going to happen. Its DOA in the House.
I would support the appeal if nobama would transfer him self to civilian courts for his trial.
