Um, we invaded for NO reason, a sovereign country.

What would you do if they invaded us? THE SAME THING. Hypocrit nutjobs are un-believeable, literally.

Steve, you need to go back and do a little refreshing on your history. Iraq started this entire thing by invading Kuwait. We should have taken Iraq at that time instead of waiting until 2003. When Hussein surrendered he was given rules that they had to live by (no fly zones, restrictions on military equipment, etc.). Most of which he blew off and we had to go back and remind him. Why don%u2019t you %u201CGoogle%u201D Operations Desert Fox, Thunder and Strike, to name a few. These were all implemented during the Clinton Administration. You will see that Hussein and the country of Iraq had been prodding the US for years and had no intention of living under the rules of the cease-fire. He deserved to be ousted.

What would you do if somebody kept poking you in the chest? Stand up and be a man or just curl up and cower like a punk?

We, the US, stood up and knocked his azz down.

"They are not charged but they are criminals."

Oh really? Prove any of that. Maybe a few are criminals. Maybe. Most were picked off the streets. No evidence against them.

Wait till their true story''''s are told. Then you''''ll think about war crimes.

Oh, please! Those who have been determined not to be a threat or innocent have been released already over the course of the past 5 years. The ones that are left are the ones that are hardened murderous terrorists or they are those who are considered less dangerous but the US is hesistant to repatriate these guys for fear of them being tortured or executed.

I say, if they have a native country willing to take them--- send them! If they are the hardened, murderous, terrorist who has sworn to violate the rule of law-- put them to trial or find another location to house them where they will never be seen or heard from again! Close Gitmo, and let the let the libertards rejoice!

Good man. The world will see you mean business about setting the record straight. As for Bush, save at least one cell down there for a waterboarding session.

Place them all in the Secret Service Protection detail! No that is too close to the heart. I wonder which state is going to get stuck with these loonies.
Probably some Western Republican bastion.

The endgame is not going to be as easy as the Monday-morning quarterbacking about GITMO has been.

This is hardcore sycophancy,if ever there was one."Preparing the order " is being publicized as an epoch-making event by itself apart from the actual issue of the order.

peace4321: "They are not charged but they are criminals."

That is about the most un-American thing that could be said. Criminals are guilty of committing a crime. If the authorities cannot even charge them, they are not criminals. Those who detain them illegally are committing a crime.

Yes, the change is starting. It will not be easy for the weak or fearful.

obamaking-you have just proven an earlier point I made in reference to your inane, childish, idiotic posts. You are obviously a product of the Chicago ayers-obama educational system.
Now, in regards to your latest er, um, post-explain why Sarah Palin is a recist?? Now, just why do you say that?

Anyone who doesn''t give Obamaking a handout must be a racist.

And since they have removed an earlier story on the gitmo closing I want to say again-the answer would be for the chosen one, his lib buddies in congress, many hollywood "celebse" AND mccain to take as many of these poor, unfortunate souls home and, hey, adopt them. Of course they would have to have soccer fields for them.
