It was justuuuhh , ummmm, uhhh something that we need to still look at,.... uhhh ummm, if we don't find a viable solution, uuuhh umm You like pie? Anybody here like pie?The few smart Dems are scared to death that if the U.S. is victim of another major terrorist attack after Obama disarms our security apparatus their cushy gov’t jobs will be in serious jeopardy.
The Pubs pressured for the sensible thing. But if it were I, I would be tempted to vote for the funding, leaving Obama no excuse when he ends up with egg on his face at the end of the year.
Oshama having to ditch one campaign promise after another.
NIMBY syndrome democrats is probably a big part of it.
This is one of the few cases where Obama has not doubled down on a stupid error and allowed it to become enshrined in policy rather than admitting a mistake.
Of course, the Donks are going to have to pretend that they are keeping Gitmo open due to forces beyond their control. But at least they are doing the right thing.
Just say no is a great strategy, it’s the ONLY strategy. Somebody has to do it.
Ya know, President Bush always had a laundry list of things he wanted too and never go through.
How come the “just say NO” agenda was perfectly fine for the Rats when our President was George W. Bush? I am pleased that some Rats are beginning to see the light that Obama just maybe doesn’t have all the smarts that the liberal media confers on him.

Anybody here like pie?I find it less than believable republicans had any influence on this at all. They were only mentioned to make it sound ‘bipartisan’. Some dems are smart enough to understand what a cluster bomb shutting down gitmo would be. Frankly, despite all the rhetoric, I believe a majority of dems feel gitmo is a good thing. The real issue is Bush Derangement Syndrome.
Obama never intended to actually close Gitmo in 1 year. He announced it to appease the left wing kook fringe.
Obama and the Democrats don’t need a single Republican vote to pass this or anything else. They own it all now.
Can someone tell me why our government needs $81 million to CLOSE a facility?
And, there won't be any available anytime soon. I'm waiting with baited breath to hear what the talking points on this are.
When people start dying in the US because of Obama’s stupid ideas; this being one; he will go down in flames.
This is a new tune:
“Democratic leaders were not immediately available to comment. “

Obama to Release First Wave of GITMO Terrorists onto American Streets

That't a boldface lie. The Dems had a definte plan to form a committee to explore what their possible options were and then formulate a solution that the majority of them could agree on as to what should be done with the terrorists undocumented Mid-Eastern detainees in accordance with European laws of some sort or another.
“Closing the prison “just never stood up to logic.”
Well Duh.
