President Barack Obama is moving ahead with his push to close the Guantanamo Bay prison despite the uproar over the exchange of five Taliban prisoners for a captured American soldier, an administration official said Thursday.

The Periodic Review Board has determined that more former 'forever prisoners,' including one who says he has been reformed by practicing yoga and another who was a bodyguard for Bin Laden but now wants to start a 'milk and honey farm' are fit for release to their homelands or repatriation.

Ghaleb Nasser al Bihani, 35, told a parole board in April that he had read the biographies of Dr Martin Luther King Jr and the Dalai Lama and aspired to live 'an ordinary life.'

They had a program on the rehab of these bas***** showing them painting pictures...therapy they called it.

Alas....I think it was 40% (probably more) that went back to being the murderous bas***** they are.

This will be the Era of Obama's unintended consequences.

Release them from 30,000 feet without parachutes. Save money on landing and taking off again.

If this doesn’t send the Obama administration up in flames via impeachment, nothing will. The military must be in hysterics.

We can call it “The green method of release”

What a petulant little prick - he knows the American people are against this nonsense, so he doubles down and flashes the bird to us. Where are the republicrats on this? Is Boehner passed out on the 19th hole somewhere? I’ve had it.

I don’t know what motivates this final act of insanity; could be he knows he’s going down and so he’s going to take everyone else with him.

Exactly, the turkey gets his jollies flipping off Americans then cuddles up with establishment Republicans.

I wish this was just a final act of insanity but I fear he's just getting started. He wants rioting in the streets.

Please, please, please tell me this is satire. We cannot get one marine out of a Mexican jail there on bogus charges, a Christian woman and her child languish in a Sudanese prison, and Obama's priority is releasing terrorists because they take up yoga?

Let’s put Obunghole in Guantanamo. He’s clearly an enemy combatant.

He wants rioting in the streets.

He won't get it from us on the right.

It's when things spiral out of control and people don't know where their next meal is coming from.

THAT is when things go Mad-Max and Fallout.

The Progressives think they can control the Chaos and Rioting for political ends, after all never let a crisis go to waste because you can do things that you couldn't do before.

But they will find their dream of control is just that. A Dream.

They will be consumed too.
