So why didn't he? I can think of only one logical reason that makes sense: President Obama became privy to information that Candidate Obama was not privy too, that convinced him, same as Bush before him, that simply closing Gitmo would present a clear and present danger to the country. Now we can scream that this is wrong and not the American way....and well....we'd be right. But if my assumption is right, then we've had two completely different presidents from two different parties come to the same conclusion re: Gitmo. Which is compelling. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:348893 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
