Now remember the 17 Uighurs at Gitmo. They have admitted to being trained and committed terrorists. Incredibly, a military review board said they are no threat to America when they are all associates of the East Turkistan Islamic Movement. The ETIM has a long relationship with al Qaeda and its founder swore allegiance to Osama bin Laden. On April 9, 2009, the Obama administration added the ETIM’s current leader, Abdul Haq, to the Treasury Department’s terrorist list. As they pose a direct threat to Chinese businessmen and diplomats here, who wants to risk becoming collateral damage?

I am so glad to hear they are going to stop this insanity of releasing trained terrorists into the general population!!!

This is not about the Dems in congress standing up against Obama. This is about Obama realizing that he cannot close Guantanomo.

Like I stated in January..."Guantanamo will be still be open a year from now...count on it".

Obama realizes he cannot close it down, so instead of looking like he is going back on his promises he is producing a puppet show starring congressional dems, which later he can come around to their view and appear to be reasonable and compromising.

I never really got into any of the debates over Guantanamo because I am reasonably certain that it will not close. It is just a political card to keep the public divided while they carve up the economy.

This is Obama's Magic Show (sleight-of-hand shenanigans)
