So the record is clear: rather than keep us safer, the prison at Guantanamo has weakened American national security. It is a rallying cry for our enemies. It sets back the willingness of our allies to work with us in fighting an enemy that operates in scores of countries. By any measure, the costs of keeping it open far exceed the complications involved in closing it. That is why I argued that it should be closed throughout my campaign. And that is why I ordered it closed within one year. "

I have no earthly idea where this bufoon gets his facts or information, but he's dead wrong. He could not prove one single fact in this entire sentence...not one.

It's just more cheerleading and campaign talk.

Only now, he's screwing around with the safety of myself and my family....and that I will not put up with.

"Speak bluntly. Euphemisms are interpreted as weakness by our enemies and mislead the American people. Speak of killing terrorists and destroying their organizations. Timid speech leads to timid actions. Explain when necessary, but do not apologize. Expressions of regret are never seen as a mark of decency by terrorists or their supporters, but only as a sign that our will is faltering. Blame the terrorists as the root cause whenever operations have unintended negative consequences. Never go on the rhetorical defensive.
And...

". Never accept the consensus of the Washington intelligentsia, which looks backward to past failures, not forward to future successes. "

And so we have an elected president that is declaring his intent to do harm - realy, physical harm - to the american people. Or, at least, has openly admitted that he has no wish to protect them or the constitution.

If these are not grounds for immediate impeachment and removal from office, I don't know what are.

It's repeat speak from all the liberal talking points during their latest campaigns. It's bunk.

While Obama is SO worried about Gitmo prisoners who were ACTUAL terrorists, he's mulling over plans for Preventive Detention Laws for people who MIGHT be terrorists. Obama Is Said to Consider Preventive Detention Plan
