    Default Obama: Day 1.

    I must say, impressive. Good first steps.

    1. He froze White House Executive salaries.
    2. He drafted a document to close the detention center in guantanamo bay.
    3. He already called many middle eastern leaders.

    ^^ you are gay and I was trying to have a serious conversation. Not about politics, but about peoples feelings about him stepping up so quickly. Politics is a meaningless process about money. I feel Obama may be above such things. We shall see with time.

    The constitution states the president elect becomes president on January 20th at 12 O'clock regardless of the oath.

    Closing Gitmo is going to have all kinds of problems. Where do the detainees go now? most countries dont want them, so .......

    And there are people there that were resposible for 9/11, how do we try them now?

    Hope he has a plan for all that

    trial for anyone in Gitmo? lol Like i said before.. most of them dont even kow why they are there, in the first place. its all based on loose information. And we dont have time or money to give these people a trial, with out any evidence. and you definatly cant lock up or execute people based on who they know, or hang out with. That place is like a trophy case, for the past 8 years...to show the world "hey look what we got"

    yes this is an asshole comment but i honestly dont give a damn what happens to them, i dont know them, dont care about them. but it is a bad decision to to close them, but if they do release them then send them back to where they came from so they get killed if they were actually involved in it. cause im sure they wont trust them.(remember i dont care what happens to them)

    I'm just saying he has alot to prove. That's all. And you're exactly right... He IS the new guy in the office. I HOPE he doesn't fuck up. But only time will tell.

    i mean me neither too much. but its a waste of money...OUR money. We pay for them to sleep/eat/workout etc.. everyday to keep that place open. its a big waste for not much but a bunch of henchmen, or friends of known terrorists etc.

    if they really thought these guys at Gbay were guilty, they woudl have been put on trial, sentenced.. and been serving time. more than half of those guys are just there.

    Im sure they wont just throw them back into society, or jsut release the gates and let them walk out the door. but this also isnt really an obama thing.. it has been in talks for awhile now.. to close gbay.

    I'm sorry but no offense I found this a little humorous. We don't have the time or money to give these people a trial but we have money to throw out there for all the extra bull shit that was in the bailout and Obama's already proposing $850B stimulus after the last one didn't work. Oh yea. The guy is really learning. I think the best idea I have heard regarding any kind of stimulus came out of Texas. Instead of adding to the problem by printing off more money on top of the $700B bailout suspend Federal Tax witholdings for 60 days. IMHO the stimulus is flawed. What we need right now is people spending money not socking it away or paying down credit cards and thats exactly what they did with the stimulus and only a select people got it. If you suspended Federal Tax witholdings for 60 days regardless of age or income, think about all the kids that would have a couple hundred extra bucks every two weeks to blow on stupid shit they otherwise couldnt get. That more than anything would help.

    As long as they have a plan set forward for when they close it I'm ok with it. Plus them being sentenced to life is cheaper than executing them.

    Ya that would stir up even more trouble and I don't think we should ever disarm anymore nukes. Especially now with all the warm wars we got building up.

    Uhhhh I wouldn't really call it good. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009...crimes-trials/

    The courts here will let them go. Perhaps not every single one, but the bulk of these Terrorists will go free.

    They will get apologies, and even perhaps money for the time they were held for the crimes they planned, committed and participated in.

    I think closing Gbay is a good idea. The only purpose it is serving is holding supposed terrorists or war criminals. Our soldiers guard it and all its done is caused us problems. People being tortured, humiliated, molested, etc. I mean if our soldiers were being kept in something like this we would be raising mortal hell. IMO, shut it done, move the prisoners that are actually guilty of something to Alcatraz and send the rest to Australia.
