What’s amusing about so much of what Obama has done since he took office is rehabilitate Bush’s policies while pretending to be a reformer. After his endless bashing of Bush’s policies, he finds he has to follow many of them.

He was against Gitmo and the black sites—he makes exceptions to allow them to continue.

He was against the Iraq invasion—he keeps on Bush’s SecDef.

He attacked Bush’s “failed economic policies”—and backs the bailout and when he gets the chance to put a new policy in place, it’s...another bailout, and possibly another rebate.

It’s amazing to see the Democrats bash Bush, and then detail their policies which will help us recover from Bush—and their policies are the same.

If I received such an “order” in the field - I would interpret it as authorization to keep prisoners just long enough to question and determine their status before shooting them as illegal combatants as defined by the Geneva Conventions....

It bugs me to see BHO on the same site as our Founding Fathers.

“The detentions would be temporary.”

So wee the Gitmo detentions! This rendition thing is a holdover from the Clinton days.

O doesn’t have a clue what is going on, all he want to do is party on the taxpayers dime.
