I wish Obama's compassion for those suspected terrorists would extend to the unborn or even the idea that another 9/11 could happen.

However, he did state in his book that in the event of a major decision, he would side with the Muslims.

I don't believe that is an accurate reflection of what he said.

Page 261, The Audacity of Hope:

"In the wake of 9/11, my meetings with Arab and Pakistani Americans, for example, have a more urgent quality, for the stories of detentions and FBI questioning and hard stares from neighbors have shaken their sense of security and belonging. They have been reminded that the history of immigration in this country has a dark underbelly; they need specific reassurances that their citizenship really means something, that America has learned the right lessons from the Japanese internments during World War II, and that I will stand with them should the political winds shift in an ugly direction."

Don't believe everything you get in your email in-box.

I voted for McCain, but the election is over. Obama is the President of the United States. He is my President, and I am now the loyal opposition. I will pray for him, defend him from false attacks, and challenge him on his ideas that are wrong.

I humbly bow to your superior patriotism......

I am still gonna keep my gun, keep my eyes wide open, and keep looking over my shoulder.

I didn't read what I wrote on the internet.....I took my position from the same passage of the book.....you and I just interpret it differently. I think it means exactly what I think it does.

I agree with you 100 percent. I here so many things and I just give a honest answer. Just because I did not want him as president does not mean I have to disagree with everything he does and believe every lie. That is what they did to Bush and I am determined to not be that way, rather speak my opposing view when I disagree and give him credit if we ever agree.

Murtha is now offering for them to build another Gitmo in his state, to help with the economy. What sense does this make, besides the obvious ploy for money?

Also today there are reports that the #2 in Al Queda in Yemen was released from Gitmo last year. He must have been the only guilty one. :roll:

Dewayne,
Sadly you are applying common sense LOGIC to an ILLOGICAL liberal delusion.


Remember the Titanic? America is about to run smack into this ice berg effect known as Obama. Our only choice is that they OVERREACH to far and to fast.

from what i understand there are some areas they are thinking of placing these terrorist. I am not sure who would want these prisoners in there back yard or why but for many reasons I think it is a mistake.

As of right now they receive medical care aprox 3-4 times a month being that the places they are thinking about do not have a hospital in the prison, if they were to give the same treatment to them at the new place they would be taking around 30 terrorist to the local hospital everyday for them to recieve that same care. That is 30 terrorist that can possibly escpape or have someone break them out and not to mention the hospitals having to have 30 a day at the hospital....

Most likely they would not get the treatment as far as medical goes as they have for this very reason but from what it looks like it will not be easy to close this place down. It really is not feasible and MOST Americans do not want these terrorist in their backyard, It is those oversees giving us the pressure.

Well we could send them to ALaska :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
