Obama to Release One Third of Gitmo Inmates (insanity)
Breitbart ^ | 22 Sep 2012, 10:21 AM PDT | AWR Hawkins

Posted on 09/22/2012 7:22:58 PM PDT by Texas Fossil

President Barack Obama is about to release or transfer 55 Gitmo prisoners, despite reports that the Libyan believed to be behind the killing of US Ambassador Christopher Stevens was a former Guantanamo inmate transferred to Libyan custody.

The large percentage of those scheduled to be released are Yemeni, according to a list made public by the Obama administration.

Obama stopped the release or transfer of Yemeni inmates in 2010, because the conditions in the country were viewed as too "unsettled" at the time.

A release or transfer of 55 inmates means Obama is moving out one third of the prisoners at Guantanamo. And while it doesn't represent a shutdown of the facility, it's certainly indicative of a move toward that end.

I still remember the daily war body count and daily gas price updates on the news and the front page of the paper daily.... all of that stopped with the election in 2008

Imagine what this BASTARD will do after Nov. 6th if he loses the election.. Also, gee I wonder if this will embolden the Islamic terrorists now that they’ve received something in return for their killing spree and rioting?

Politicians are like diapers. They should both be changed frequently and both for the same reason.

0bama is a dictator if Congress is powerless to stop this. It’s time for the RINO’s to get off their scaredy-pants azzes and fight this tooth and nail. This is surrender!

I certainly hope Romney starts talking about this and running ads about it. As an effective blue dog Democrat, he at least seems to have a pro-American foreign policy. I doubt his campaign reads Breitbart though, so we’ll have to wait and see if this story makes Drudge before Romney will know about it.

I bet he will move back to Hawaii and write his new book... My Inner Love for the Brotherhood. I bet he would sit back and write all about his inner faith for Allah just because he suffers from NPD.

While they’re at it maybe they could clean up the U.S. prison system by shipping all Nation of Islam convicts to someplace like Somalia.

Man, our entire family (on both sides) can hardly wait to vote. Only 45 days! Lord please make it go by quickly so we can end this reign of gross stupidity. My only fear is the lame duck period, where appalling news like this will no doubt come to us hourly.

Before he is done I fully expect him to release the names, addresses and phone numbers of anyone anywhere in the world who has ever provided any information to agency workers.

The damage to US intel will last multiple generations.

I will refrain from making any comments or speculation about self-preservation instincts of wet work operatives.

“The damage to US intel will last multiple generations.”

Yes, like the data captured in the al Qaeda assault on the Consulate. List of names of everyone helping the US Ambassador.

Certainly he could do terrible damage in the lame duck session.

I feel 100% confident that Romney will be our new president. I fear voter fraud will be out of control but we will still prevail. People are really upset. Obama seems to care more about his precious campaign then our national security. He has divided our nation and apologized for the last time.

A bit...

On Dec 21, 2012, Obama will have had a little over a month to stew in his humiliating, crushing and unexpected defeat at the hands of the American people.

He’ll still be Commander in Chief.

He’ll still have the nuclear ‘football’. Just sitting there. Staring at him. Taunting him. Daring him. Double-eaten-dog daring him...

Too bad we can’t demand the live feeds of the Embassy from the night of Sept 11th through the Freedom of Information Act. The politicians that claim to be upset about the attack should watch for themselves what happened. Obama and Hillary did. Of course Obama watched when he got back from Las Vegas. They had the cameras installed within the last 6 months.

As one myself, internet retailers can set fraud protection parameters. You can set things to take any payment that comes through, regardless of fields such as name, street number, zip, cvv2 code and exp. date not matching up.

If you disable ALL fraud protections anyone in the world with a good credit card can make a donation using US phonebook addresses.

Releasing 55 known terrorists will REALLY show the Islamicists that Obastard is serious.
