President Obama is ready to issue orders on Thursday to close Guantanamo prison and overhaul the treatment of terrorism suspects, in a swift move to restore a U.S. image hurt by charges of torture.
A draft executive order obtained by Reuters on Wednesday sets a one-year deadline to close the controversial U.S. military prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, where foreign terrorism suspects have been detained for years without trial.
Obama, who was sworn in as president on Tuesday, is expected to issue the order on Guantanamo on Thursday. He will also ban abusive interrogations and order a review of detention policies for captured militants, said congressional aides and a White House official.

And people will keep on thinking he's NOT a freedom-hating Muslim... |

Saving us and the united states the old mighty dollar! |

No more cock-meat sandwiches. Big Bob's gonna be pissed. |

HAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA!!!!!! |

I like Obama, and am happy to see him trying to accomplish something so quickly. All the right-ist talk show hosts have been predicting a VERY long honeymoon, where nothing will start happening for almost half a year. Happy to hear that they might be wrong. |

Anytime Gerry Callahan is wrong, it puts a smile on my face. |
|
|
or Michael Grahm(sp) or Jay Severin(sp) or Rush -ducheamis-maximis. (this one is spelled perfectly.) |
|
|
what Obama has done has been largely symbolic and isn't up to scale of the problems we're facing. No surprise there. I didn't have higher expectations for the first week. So I can't be disappointed. In principle, I think the decisions have been mostly good. |

Yeah, of course it's not on the scale of the problems we face. he's been in office for two days!! What the fuck do you expect? Do you think he should hit the "reset" button? Or just pass the "fix the economy" bill? Are you familiar with politics? Do you know how long it takes most presidents to do ANYTHING useful/meaningful? And then when they do, usaully it's something that isn't controversial or for any real purpase. If you don't understand the implications of the US being charged with warcrimes, and how much it will help us to be NOT be accused of such things, then you should open your eyes.
Yes, it's a small step, but he's walking in the right direction, and he started walking right when the start whistle blew. |

OBAMA = FIDEL CASTRO GUYZ. 911TRUTH.ORG. GODHATESFAGS.COM! |
|
|
ouch....I stopped reading pretty early in when it stopped being a relevant reaction to my post
I said I didn't have higher expectations than these symbolic moves. I didn't have higher expectations because I am familiar with politics.
no biggie. |
|
|
ok. so you replied to a post that you didn't finish reading? interesting. |
|
|
obama will fist all prisoners |
|
|
not a big deal to me either, but the whole post did pertain to yours. The fact that it will really help our image, and dealings with other countries is a big plus. We aren't exactely liked at the moment. I realize we are a superpower, but you don't want everyone to hate you. |
|
|
because torture is funny. |
|
|
BLAME CLINTON BECAUSE HE GOT HEAD FROM A FAT BITCH! THAT IS HOW ALL THIS STARTED!!
hot carl. |
|
|
So you mean Obama is doing exactly what he said he would so far? Heh. How bout that. |
|
|
I wonder if what he said he would do is
(a) realistic
or
(b) designed to make people feel good
Ponder, ponder. |
|
|
i'd really like to know your motivations behind your excessive negative posts.
A. we cant do anything about what the president does
B. fearmongering on your part has absolutely no positive REALISTIC value.
ponder that. |
|
|
how about answer FIMSs' post after that one. You sycophantic wanna be intellectual. |
|
|
What happens when a Ponzi scheme is so big you can't see its boundaries
I was enjoying FIMS' contributions. Why I speak any opinion: sowing the seeds for tomorrow. Why I don't worry about what he said: because people in this life always try to convince you to shut yourself down, and I lack low self-confidence, so it doesn't affect me.
"wannabe" is one word ;) |
|
|
And FIMS:
Please don't take that as disrespect. I enjoy you and your posts. But that was ludicrous. I am pretty sure you're kidding and being cynical, which I understand also. |
|
|
65 of the terrorists we let go from gitmo have been recaptured or killed attempting to or successfully launching terror attacks against Americans.

I understand everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I do have respect for yours as well. I am just constantly baffled by your comments. And no i wasnt kidding or being cyincal with my comments. I dont believe in being consistently negative about everything because it causes you to miss a great portion of the good things humanity has to offer. |

Also you can be hopeful that things will change for the better without expecting them too. |

MULTICULTURALISM DOESN'T WORK TOM! BLACKS ARE INFERIOR! EVERYTHING IS A CONSPIRACY! DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUH |

Obama begins corporate partnerships
Oh, Pam -- so dramatic. Did your paranoid, primitive worldview leave you feeling too much of the pain of cognitive dissonance? Just remember: there are elites out there, and they ain't you. |

MULTICULTURALISM BAD
LINKS TO CONSPIRACY THEORY SITES GOOD
BLAH BLAH BLAH LIBERALS |

Now he's just gotta figure out what to do with all those silly sons of bitches.
Personally, while I didn't vote for the guy, he's the President so I hope he does ok for the good of the country, which is paramount above political parties and whatnot. I might not like everything that he does, but we'll see what comes down the pipe beyond barely two days in office. |

Really nice to hear after a week of seeing "I can't wait until he fucks up the country" all over the internet. |

A tickle monster, yes. But a political monster? Nah. |

Just because we disagree vehemently on politics does not mean I think you are a monster. There isn't a person on this website I wouldn't buy a beer for if given the opportunity.
Except for Aaron. Fuck that guy. |

Actually, I think we'd agree more then you'd think after I explain things at length on specific issues. I tend to lean to the Right, but I'm not a Bible beater, I've got a fairly Libertarian streak in me and I'm pretty pragmatic with breaking down issues from just a simple "yes" or "no" because nothing is ever that simple.
But I'm gonna take that as you're buying me a beer next time I see you in public.
And yeah, screw that Rev dude. I heard he runs a white slavery ring and won't share. |

Bump for G-mo still being open and Secret Rendition of detainees still occuring... |

No politician ever does what they say. This applies to Obama, America's half-white pseudo-Messiah. |
