Affirmative action will get some men a Harvard degree but it will not make them smarter.

Boy is he stunned.

Don’t you wish he’d go over to his other job as head of General Motors and figure out how to sell some effing cars. Get him to dig out his birth certificate while he’s over there.

Do you suppose there’s something wrong with him?

How about putting them all on a leaky boat back to the middle east.

Why transfer them to prisons? I thought they were innocent until proven guilty. They should be out on bail, preferably somewhere in the Bay area.

Alcatraz would work just fine.

If they happen to swim over to Berkeley, oh well.

Here’s how it breaks down:

–President Stutter McSpendypants will bring terror detainees into the U.S.

–A Clinton appointee federal judge will rule that, since they have not been charged, and were not read their Miranda rights on the battlefield–they must be freed.

–No foreign country will take them.

–Obama’s DoJ says “Our hands are tied. Gee, if it weren’t for that evil Bush, this wouldn’t be happening.”

–They are let out in America and join a Jihadi sleeper cell somewhere near you.

–Lovin’ that Hope and Change yet, Comrades??

They weren’t terrorists before but I wouldn’t blame them if they are now. Thanks, Bush.

They already are in a prison.

Our Supermax prisons can hold them easily but they would be in worse conditions than Gitmo. The Red Cross should be going nuts…but somehow I don’t think they are inclined to do so.

Aaaaah, open your nostrils and draw it in, the sweet smell impeachment.

JohnnyAmerican   May 21st, 2009 - 3:19 pm

Is this current president out of his frigging mind by wanting to bring these people to the US. I say we load them on a plane and drop them back in the middle of the Iran desert. screw them! Obama is the terrorist here!

Here is a place to put them.

Brand new state of the art 464 inmate $27,000,000.00 prison standing completely idle for the last two years (politicians – room in it for them too)…

Obama is walking a dangerous line by intellectualizing the national security issue. By declassifying the interrogation legal opinions — very interesting reading, by the way — but keeping classified the data that was derived from the interrogations, Obama is making a huge mistake politically. For the short term he firms up his liberal base, but even that won’t hold (see the Senate vote this week not authorizing the expenditure of funds to close Guantanamo) since his liberal base is as doctrinaire as those on the committed right. So in the longer term he must release this information, and when he does (if Cheney is to be believed) we will learn that Obama has restricted the very means by which the Bush administration was able to avoid another 911 in the last 7+ years of Bush-Cheney. That will likely gravely hurt him politically. The American people now think it is appealingly curious to have him as President but they won’t put up with him if they perceive that he is politicizing the defense of the country.
But Obama is at his base an academic, just as Jimmy Carter saw himself, and a defense shield built of books cannot withstand an onslaught. Hopefully, for the sake of our security Obama will before long realize that he can’t theorize about our defense. Tick tock.

America…Bilderberg Bush-Obama is doing all he can to “get radical Muslims” into our country!

Why?

Wants to have these detainees amongst our prison population…is using our money to bring Hamas sympathizers from Palestine into our country…hiring more Muslims in the White House.

What is this Muslim sympathizer trying to do…America?

Overwhelm us with the enemy?

Looks like that to me!

I would say…over our cold dead bodies…but that might too much on the side of truth if these people ever get lose in our contry!

Call/email your Congress and tell them NO>>>>NO>>>>NO>>>ABSOLUTELY NO TO BRINGING THEM INTO OUR COUNTRY!

====================

JUST ANOTHER SAD, PATHETIC DAY IN THE ‘REIGN OF BARRY HUSSEIN’ AND HIS AGENDA TO TAKE AMERICA DOWN ONE BANK, ONE CAR COMPANY, ONE BIG SPENDING BILL AND ONE RADICAL MUSLIM TRANSPLANT AT A TIME!

@Eileen

Agree – wish I didn’t.

Eileen for Freedom/Liberty   May 22nd, 2009 - 1:03 am

America…I was watching a report tonight about the men that were arrested today in the bombing plot of a Jewish Synogogue…I believe.

During that report it stated that many of these men that are home grown terrorists are recruited while in the American prison system.

Could this be why Bilderberg Bush-Obama wants some of these radical “detainees” within our prison system, so that they can recruit other inmates to radicalism within our country?

Just a thought…

American Liberal   May 22nd, 2009 - 11:40 am

We will take them in San Fransisco. I have plans for a couple of them. Everyone is welcome here, we are the city of love and peace.

Dr.M.L.Kingfish   May 23rd, 2009 - 11:56 am

Can’t we just shoot all of them ,dig a pit,bury the bodies and say they escaped?
or put them up in the government housing where Obama illegal “auntie” lives.
or let them room with Obama’s mother-in-law at the White House. she’s living off our tax dollars ,too.
or just release them into Cuba and we can see how the commies deal with muslims.
so many options and Pelosi was told about none from them.
or was she??????

davidwamsley   May 26th, 2009 - 6:44 pm

Since they are telling us this for a reason, then we must be told when and where they will release these miscreants, so we can take care of the business that our government is unwilling or unable to do.
I expect the PRESS to go after this with the same enthusiasm they have when they publish national secrets.
