Why are you posting a 4 year old article about a budget passed 4 years ago to explain why Obama didn't close GITMO when he promised? That would have been the year AFTER he said by the end of the year. That promise ship sailed before this budget was even passed.
Oh never mind. This is so you can blame republicans for the broken promise.
I think it was just more complicated than He first thought is all. No big deal. He can get things wrong, He's human, as long as He learns from it, it should be a good thing.
Would closing GITMO and transferring the prisoners to a different site really be any different? I'm still lost on this. Do we just assume the terrorists are idiots and will say, OK, that's better, they are detained without trial in a different place now, all is well?
Great name for a Democrat in that article, Congressman Obey! Is he still around?
