I think he tried but realized there were too many issues of what to do with the inmates.

There was too much political backlash as well. It really is a matter of "damned if you do" in his position, especially where this is concerned, but I, for one, would have liked to see him stick to his (and supposedly OUR) principles.

Alot of posters seem to think closing Gitmo is just as easy as changing clothes, I have a feeling theres alot more to it though? he probably really wanted to do it but it just wasn't possible, alot of people are opposed to transfering the Gitmo inmates to regular US Prisons.
Cognitive dissonance, I suppose."off" them?
Didn't you just post a thread about Glen Beck's violent suggestion?
Placidity and unmitigated rage both jockeying for position.
Those who voted for obama were told he was a lying sack of shit before he won the election. Gitmo is just the tip of all his lies.What a bold faced, platitude spewing, sellout of a liar Obama turned out to be. Though it's hardly a shock anymore considering he's lied about the majority of his promises. The white house should be dipped into a giant vat of acid. Off the lot of those lobbyist/corporate/banking whores.
Obama administration expanding use of Guantánamo Bay: report | Raw Story
Forget closing Guantánamo Bay -- President Barack Obama has reportedly green-lighted a plan to begin charges against new detainees at the controversial off-shore prison for the first time under his administration.
"The Obama administration is preparing to increase the use of military commissions to prosecute Guantánamo detainees, an acknowledgment that the prison in Cuba remains open for business after Congress imposed steep new impediments to closing the facility," the New York Times reported.
Administration officials told the newspaper they were preparing military tribunal trials for several suspected terrorists at the prison, signaling a major policy shift for Obama in the face of high pressure from Congressional Republicans and numerous Democrats.
The ban would soon be officially lifted by Defense Secretary Robert Gates.

Shit happens.
You have a right to hold different viewpoints at the same time. Its a good thing, in that you get to explore the complexity of the things you think about...as long as you remain aware of the dichotomy, and the complexity. You are a promising young man because you see these things. That you do so at such a young age is a hopeful thing.

And the complaints from those on the right regarding this shit is nothing but partisan hackery. You'd scream bloody murder if he didn't cave to pressure from your side, and scream louder that he does.
Nothing you say makes a damned bit of difference to what IS. Would that the president I voted for and would again would see that as clearly as many within his party does is what really rankles many of us. I would disregard you halfwits in a fraction of a second. He seems to think the losing party should have a say in the implementation of the winning parties platform. I would say fuck that and fuck YOU. Same way the republican party viewed the left when they were in power.

Wrong I am not complaining either way, I just find it a bit pathetic that the left bitched and whined three years ago and now everything is AOK. If it was fucked then it should be fucked up now, it's people like you that cannot get past you political partisanship bullshit.

While he's gotten at least part of foreign policy right, his domestic agenda is disastrous.A third Bush term.
what I do not understand is why the wingers that supported Bush do not support Obama?
Or maybe he thought he could, but then realized once he took office, he wouldn't be able to do it.
The case could be made that you still don't know shit from shinola.Because when I voted for him, I was a senior in high school and didn't know shit from shinola.You didn't honestly think Obama was telling you the truth all along now do you? Why, if you're admitting that he has been telling lies, maybe the rest of us who said Obama was lying all along should get an apology from you liberal Democrat types. Welcome to the land of enlightenment.
Liberal democrat types? There is no such thing in this country in terms of political parties. You have far rights and center rights. There is no left. The democrat party isn't communist or socialist or any of that horseshit the media spews out day to day. It's a center right party who sucks corporate/banker dick almost as much as the republicans do.
Only a gutless, polarizing waste of oxygen (such as yourself) would delude himself into believing that the American two-party political system isn't two sides of the same coin.The case could be made that you still don't know shit from shinola.Because when I voted for him, I was a senior in high school and didn't know shit from shinola.You didn't honestly think Obama was telling you the truth all along now do you?
