Getting Rid of Gitmo

I'll believe it when I see it, because right now there are tons of conditions and qualifiers! I mean, Obama isn't going to prosecute war crimes, so why should we believe him? I think the slickster is just trying to quiet the "left."

"Obama preparing order to shut Guantanamo" by Lara Jakes, Associated Press | January 13, 2009

WASHINGTON - President-elect Barack Obama is preparing to issue an executive order his first week in office - and perhaps his first day - to close the US military prison at Guantanamo Bay, two presidential transition team advisers said yesterday.

It's unlikely the detention facility at the Navy base in Cuba will be closed anytime soon. In an interview last weekend, Obama said it would be "a challenge" to close it even within the first 100 days of his administration.

Hey, what's ONE MORE DISAPPOINTMENT from the GREAT CHANGINATOR!!?

But the order, which would fulfill a campaign pledge, would start the process of deciding what to do with the estimated 250 Al Qaeda and Taliban suspects and potential witnesses who are being held there. Most have not been charged with a crime.

Yeah, because they are ALL INNOCENT!! 9/11 an INSIDE JOB with PLANTED PATSIES, and ALL TERRORISM is CREATED, FUNDED, and DIRECTED by WESTERN GOVERNMENTS!!!!

keep in mind that rendition, secret black site prisons, and the floating dungeons the U.S. maintains are all kept safely out of the public eye.
