Obama's Promise to Close Gitmo, Times running out.
Jan 2, 2016 10:32:55 #
Closing Gitmo is a pledge that dates back to Mr. Obama's 2008 presidential campaign. But congressional opposition remains, and some of the president's former advisers are urging him to use his executive authority to transfer prisoners to the U.S. for detention or trial. Currently, 107 prisoners remain at Guantanamo.
First, Obama said he's going to take one last shot at presenting a plan to Congress to close it.
But he admits that "it's fair to say that there's going to be significant resistance from some quarters." Obama is making a financial argument that "it doesn't make sense for us to be spending an extra $100 million, $200 million, $300 million, $500 million, a billion dollars, to have a secure setting for 50, 60, 70 people."Now wait a minute... Yet, if everyone remembers at the firts of Obama's presidentsy Obama was bailing out Solyndra Green Energy at the cost of 500 billion dollars and then six months latter Solyndra went back rupt.... Where did that money go?? Well glad you ask, the money went to Obama's handlers and other prominant buisness people, George Soro's and many others, its like a pay back at the tax payers expence for getting this pathetic muslim in office. Sure there were court trials to prosecute the CEO's but it never happen.It's also ok to send 150 Billion to Siria to fund there war and back up ISIS and thats ok according to Obama cause it's all for the sake of "ALAH".
Beyond the cost, the president has long argued that the prison fuels the propaganda of terror groups.
Two of his former aides have argued that Article II of the Constitution gives the president exclusive authority to decide where U.S. military detainees are held. But other scholars argue that since Congress has explicitly banned Mr. Obama from transferring detainees to the U.S., any executive action to do so would be unconstitutional.The word unconstitutional means nothing to Obama. So, here we go again. Just a piece of work, Demonic man in charge.Obama's own party has recently turning there back to this imposter. 12 more months.

Nobody with a brain thinks closing Gitmo will strengthen America or weaken the terrorists that intent to kill us.
The fact that Democrats can't call Obama out on this speaks volumes to their lack of integrity.

Include latest impeachable crime of Obama. He ordered the NSA, by snooping on PM Netanyahu and Congress during the talks about Iran Nuclear Agreement.
Reasons why he continues to violate the Constitution is that Congress has been allowing him to do it.
