When they are done trying Bush/Cheney, we can begin Obama’s trial for treason.

Kick them out of the country and put them on a travel visa watch list.

We may not be able to hold them but we don’t have to let them immigrate.

The Left says it is too dangerous for these muslims to return home. They may be tortured by local officials there (if they are concerned about terrorism) or they may be cast out for “talking” or even posing a security risk to other terrorist cells (since they may still be monitored to see who they communicate with).

And when they get here they may torture some of us by committing acts of terrorism in our own country. I do not think our country will last until 2012 with these kinds of policies of the “O”. This administration is going to stick it to the American people one too many times ~ and I don’t think that will take another 4 1/2 years!

In today’s world, everything is turned on its head. I have read that these Chinese muslims were judged to be a major risk by the group studying the prisoners but that Obama wants them released and gave orders to change the evaluation. True? Can’t be sure but I wouldn’t be surprised if it were.

The Chinese want these guys back. Maybe they should threaten to just not show up for the next treasury bill auction until we extradite them.

My daughter has a few contacts on the Mainland and speaks decent Mandarin. Maybe I'll have her pass along this suggestion.

Not long after being granted access to TV, some of the Uighurs were watching a soccer game. When a woman with bare arms was shown on the screen, one of the group grabbed the television and threw it to the ground, according to the officials.

I hope their new neighbors don't use that as an excuse for not inviting them to superbowl parties.

Do they get free housing and food stamps? I presume so. And Public Defenders if they run into any trouble.

Just put them back where we found them if we’re going to release them.

Will BHO take the blame when they start using all they learned from other prisoners?
