This beyond the pale even for our foolish, Marxist, Islamofascist-sympathizing president:
The Obama administration is planning to free dangerous enemy combatants held at GITMO . . .
. . . to live on U.S. soil (!) (since no other nation on earth is apparently crazy enough to take them) . . .
. . . at TAXPAYER EXPENSE!
Here, from the Associated Press, is a partial account of DNI Dennis Blair’s first press conference today [emphasis added]:
During his news conference, Blair also said the Obama administration is still wrestling with what to do with the remaining 240 detainees at the Guantanamo Bay Naval Base, which the president has ordered closed.
Some of the detainees, deemed non-threatening, may be released into the United States as free men, Blair confirmed.
That would happen when they can't be returned to their home countries, because the governments either won't take them or the U.S. fears they will be abused or tortured. That is the case with 17 Uighurs (WEE'-gurz), Chinese Muslim separatists who were cleared for release from the jail long ago. The U.S. can't find a country willing to take them, and it will not turn them over to China.
Blair said the former prisoners would have [to] get some sort of assistance to start their new lives in the United States.
Welfare will, of course, free up the enemy terrorists' time to plot their next terror attack -- and give them immediate access to their American target!
Gina, with the way things have been going since Obamination Day nothing surprises me any longer. They'd probably do the same with Usama if they ever catch him. This is just pathetic!!

I just can't believe what is coming out of OUR WHITE HOUSE in such torrents EACH AND EVERY DAY, something new and more disguisting than what was issued the day before. Now, they want us to turn over our dollars to "help" these terrorists who were implicitly involved in killing Americans, either here in our own country or abroad, as in Iraq or Afghanistan, through terrorism anda car-bombings and such, NO I WILL NOT SUPPORT THEM IN OUR OWN COUNTRY. I do not want them to be here, I do not want to support their needs to "get adjusted" into life in America, an America that they HATE with a vehemence that I have never even felt towards anyone, until NOW and this Usurper of a President that we have, who is trying beyond all measure to totally destroy everything that America is and stands for.
