Closure Of Guantanamo Detention Facilities

Post by BDKJMU »

Fri was a year since Obama made his dumbass pronouncement with no plan at all. Way to put the cart before the horse... :lol:

"....Sec. 3. Closure of Detention Facilities at Guantánamo. The detention facilities at Guantánamo for individuals covered by this order shall be closed as soon as practicable, and no later than 1 year from the date of this order. If any individuals covered by this order remain in detention at Guantánamo at the time of closure of those detention facilities, they shall be returned to their home country, released, transferred to a third country, or transferred to another United States detention facility in a manner consistent with law and the national security and foreign policy interests of the United States.....

Olbermann has been real critical of Obama lately. Wonder how long it will take to pull Chris Matthews off the president's package? I am not taking voting lightly but did the "record numbers of voters" show up really thinking there was gonna BE hope and change, or did they vote because a brutha was finally running. The questions NEEDS answering.
