No ‘reform’ too absurd for Obama to spring Gitmo detainees

No ‘reform’ too absurd for Obama to spring Gitmo detainees By Paul Sperry

If you thought President Obama’s release of five top Taliban commanders in exchange for POW Bowe Bergdahl was bad, wait until you see what his Gitmo parole board plans. Desperate to empty the Guantanamo Bay prison by the end of his term, Obama quietly is giving “get out of jail free” cards for the flimsiest of excuses. One al Qaeda suspect captured in Afghanistan is considered reformed because he took up yoga and read a biography of the Dalai Lama. Another is eligible for release because of his “positive attitude.” And one longtime detainee, a former bodyguard for Osama bin Laden, is now harmless because he’s going to start a “milk and honey farm.”

What's it going to take to impeach this guy? Why aren't Republicans doing anything or do you think they are waiting till after November? We got 2.5 more years of this guy and God knows what else he's going to do. He's a direct threat to the safety and well being of this country and he needs to go ASAP.

That’s exactly what it is and he knows they are, which is why he’s doing absolutely anything he wants.

And even this is just the beginning. The Joint Chiefs rolled over for this prisoner release. Imagine what Obama can do in three more years.

This proves that the Pentagon cannot protect itself.
America is without any protection because of the abdicated
hated, EXEMPT (from every Law THEY PASS) Congress.

Unfortunately impeachment of zero would not do any good at all. All it would do is fire up his side a little .
Zero doesn't have the brainpower to come up with any of the ops that have been designed by much greater commie minds than his own.

He has Satan’s and Soro’s backing. That’s the only reason this leech on society has stayed around as long as he has. That plus the fact that the majority of our Congress critters have no balls. I have a feeling that even his own security detail hates him and his wife just from tidbits I’ve heard here and there. It’s not going to be a happy ending when the walls come tumbin’ down. I have a feeling that some heavy embezzling of our tax $$$ has been going on for years too as well. Just a gut feeling.

Pull up a chair and pass the popcorn.

.....impeachment would not do any good. All it would do is fire up his side....

Could not agree more....imp/ment would turn him into a "victim"....and he's got a lot of practice doing that in the gutters of Chicago (where he came from).

I say Dummycrats should "bell the cat" and go tell him "it's over"----they should force him out of office.

Dems up for re-election better get with the program....they been lock-stepping w/ der deranged leader for far too long. Dummys have been lacerated by their constituents who aren't too happy about that putrid Obamacare Dummycrats foisted on them. Dummys can save their 2014 behinds by forcing the doofus out of office.

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

In the meantime, we better contact the men in the white coats.....methinks this Obo sucker's gonna go postal....he exhibits all the signs of someone w/ a severe mental disorder. He should be forced out of office before those he's left to the mercy of terrorist commandos get hurt.

“Obama is Law-Less because Republican “leaders” are BALL-LESS!!”

What should republicans do? Impeach? They did that to Clinton and he stayed in office another 2 years. You need a republican senate to remove him for office.

And what are we doing?

Republicans need to prioritize what their 2014-2015 goals are. Is gay marriage more important than rolling back Obamacare? Is abortion more important than removing Obama from office?

Republicans want the power of an unchecked Executive. It is that simple.

From the article:

“In a report on detainee recidivism, Obama’s own director of national intelligence this year documented that 178, or 29 percent, of the 614 prisoners already transferred from the prison have been confirmed to have, or are suspected of having, re-engaged in terrorism.

That means for every three freed from Gitmo, one has rejoined the war against us. Intelligence analysts admit their ability to track all former detainees is limited, so the recidivism rate may, in fact, be much higher.”
