Obama Tells GOP: I Won

I also didn't vote for either. There were other candidates. This supposed economic stimulas plan is not the largest. It will end up being after the two sides get together and they add the ####### rthat is usual. It is the same old failed plan that the other party did. Huge spending. Big Tax cuts that equal a huge deficit that is very harmful. This is not change.

Closing Gitmo only means the prisoners move elsewhere. Just because he is making gestures that are meaningless does not mean he is bringing change. He is doing the same old failed of policies.

I'll reserve comment because quite frankly he hasn't done *anything* yet except sign some executive orders. After the last 8 years I don't blame you for being cynical, but let's see what happens.

I don't think you really understand what this means then. Closing Gitmo means a LOT more than just relocation for the prisoners. For starters it means those still being held by the United States will started being treated fairly and under the rule of law, rather than the house of horrors that Gitmo symbolizes.

I get your point about "rule of law" but how was gitmo a "house of horrors" anymore than the next place they wind up?

That's why I underlined the qualifier that those still held by the U.S., after all is said and done. Any of the detainees being sent back to, say, Syria...well, Gitmo was probably a better place for them personally. I'm hoping the Obama administration takes reasonable precautions against this sort of thing.

Why would I live there? I love where I live now. If you are saying that I should live out of the states because I don't like the two political parties that most vote then you are a moron.

Obama won a majority of the over 200K/yr voters. So now his rich buddies will have their way.

[Peikko 1,575]

Can we assume from this that you are not in the $200,000/yr bracket Alien? I sense a soupcon of jealousy

Yes I never said I hate my country ever anywhere. You find that I did then let us all know. And you think That I think the Reps and Dems are the same old same old that I need to go live somewhere else? Ok then I guess you are a genius. Are we supposed to only post our political idea if the are only of the two major parties?

I'm sure it's my lack of comprehension of your point but, it seems to me, you were suggestion Gitmo was in some way a "house of Horrors". The only negative report I recall hearing was one incident concerning the handling of the Koran.

I suspect when these prisoners are transferred to their next prison... they will wish they were back at Gitmo.

[luckytxn 2,264]

Yes I am sure that they will allow these type of prisoners a lot more freedom to do anything. I do hope that they finally get full attorney access and their day in court finally.
