May each of you have the heart to conceive, the understanding to direct, and the hand to execute works that will leave the world a little better for your having been here. -- Ronald Reagan

What? Obama Going to Hold Gitmo Detainees Indefintely?

Obama now says he's going to indefinitely detain those poor misunderstood loving Muslims at their vacation facility at Guantanamo. He was going to get legislation to get him the power to do this, and decided not to. Authorization for the Use of Military Force passed by Congress after 9/11 is what's he's using to back his decision.

Gee, I thought he was going to let them all get lawyers, come to the US, give them US citizens' rights. Bush lied! oooops, wrong guy.

Article here. It contains Obama's spin and the ACLU's justification. Appears it's not such a bad thing when the Bamster locks up bad guys.
