President Barack Obama seems to have won over enough Congressional Democrats to push forward with his plan to move Guantanamo prisoners to a facility in rural Illinois, but the official announcement Tuesday triggered a firestorm of criticism that could undercut his stated goal of depriving Al Qaeda of a key propaganda point.
“In taking this action, we are removing from terrorist organizations around the world the recruiting tool that Guantanamo has come to symbolize,” National Security Adviser James Jones told reporters.
“Today’s announcement that the federal government will acquire the Thomson Correctional Center in Thomson, Illinois, to house federal inmates and a limited number of detainees from Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, is an important step forward as we work to achieve our national security objectives,” another top administration official said in a conference call with reporters.
But some critics said they feared that the Illinois facility, like the one in Cuba, could end up being a place where detainees are held indefinitely without trial.

Reading here I recognize that most hate ILLEGAL immigrants, NOT legal immigrants. Because they broke the law and are criminals. Also they are using up resources for citizens.
.
When Reagan granted amnesty in 1986 to over 2.6 now legal immigrants did you instantly stop hating them or do you still hate them?

I would not say "most hate ILLEGAL immigrants".
I am against illegal immigration and support the deportation of illegal alien criminals.

Obama needs others like him, as the speaker of the house Nancy Pelosi takes friends on a 2 million plus tax payer junket to Italy to get her grand parents Original Birth Certificates; American’s can’t get the traitors, their presidents on record to look at. Why? lol

Why did Bu$h bring terroists to America?
Supermax's approximately 480 concrete cells already are jammed with the likes of Oklahoma City bombing co-conspirator Terry Nichols, Atlanta Olympics bomber Eric Rudolph and other notorious domestic criminals. There also are 33 international terrorists, including Sept. 11 conspirator Zacarias Moussaoui, 1993 World Trade Center bombing mastermind Ramzi Yousef and failed airline shoe bomber Richard Reid.

You people should kiss the terrorists. Without them there’s no 9-11. Without 9-11, there’s no celebrating 9-11, like you people do every year.
So at your next 9-11 tea-banger celebration, thank the terrorists – they’re the reason for the season…. Maybe thank Bush for being so incompetent, too.

Sounds like you want to kiss the terrorists instead... and maybe give a knob job to the current POTUS cuz you think he's spotless.

He has an islam background, both his father and step-father. He wants to show his people (Islam) that he cares and will not torture them, and take care of them as they should be. If one of these or all escape or O lets them out into America, we've got real problems. I don't know about O but to me these people are murderers.

That is why the fore father set up the position of the president to be a natural born citizen so they would not still have allegience to another country. I dont know where he came from but hings are surely not in line for this country. Can we see the problems. We do not want terrorists in this country. How much to buy the prison in Ill. buy off time once again. Leave them at Gitmo. Why would we think obama is worried about how much it costs to keep them where they are when he spends our money like a person with a plan and believe the plan is not for us. Climate change and health care are all games to lead us to total government control. If the UN talks go through we are in big trouble. It will be the start of our loss of freedom as we know it now.

How good is your memory? Back in the early sixties, Nikita Khrushev of the former Soviet Union made the following statement: "we will bury you without firing a shot". The commies have infiltrated us while we were opening up this country to foreigners thanks to Carter and Clinton. Remember what happened in Russia---first they banned religion---sound familiar? Brain washed the young---sound familiar? took control of all freedom---sound familiar? We have the power to change our current leadership before we end up in the toilet looking like a third world nation.

AmVet - you are right. BUT, you actually have to go back to Edward Kennedy in the 60's with his push towards opening our boarders to anyone - legal or otherwise.

That is just false by any standards. Government control? That is just not true. This is such a wild claim that is is useless to try and debate a man who is not rational. Bring a rational thought to the table and then we can talk.
