Nobama Rules!

Read the news today...Gitmo will close. Overseas CIA installations will close (effectively ending rendition), and interrogation techniques will be severely limited. I vote that we consider serving the terrorist detainees cookies and milk

Yeah, FROM CHERNOBYL!

People were worried we would look like pansies if we pulled our soldiers out of the giant sandbox. Im sure this is worse way of putting it. If this is the start be prepared for people to start walking all over us again, and pray to someone they(terror-istt) dont get ballsy again.

Are we just closing the centers or ending operations? There is a difference.

If we're shutting down ops, then we're worse off than the Pre-Bush era of non-shared intelligence....it'll now be ON intelligence.

Now, if the one legislator that proposes the federal sales and possession license for all firearms get's his way, we're really screwed.

As far as closing Gitmo, please, feel free. It costs too much to maintail and staff, has outlived it's usefulness and hell, even Americans can't go to Cuba but we can send a freaking detainee there???

Let's ship them back to some other 3rd world crap hole and see how well they fair Not all arab countries are hostile friendly

I'm hoping this guy really has a plan and is not shooting from the idealistic hip. If he is, it will bight him right square in the ass along with the rest of the US!

Guess we'll have to wait and see.

I'd like to believe there is a plan, but fear that our Pres is just parroting the same old "bleeding heart" liberal agenda that dominates Democratic philosophy. If we are to learn from Vietnam, we must recognize that if you're not willing to employ the same tactics as your enemy, you're likely to lose

When was the last time you saw a decision come from Washington D.C. that was actually GOOD for us?

I'm selling some of my guns if anyone wants to get one without a paper trail before it is illegal for me to sell them that way.........

I don't know

I guess the CIA and others will need to wear lots of body armor!!!

The Clinton administration, Bush 1 & 2 both failed to learn from the Vietnam experience. What makes us think Obama will be any different?

We'll never be willing to do what our enemies are willing to do. It's not our societal nature.

We're still not totally prepared for guerilla warfare
