Title: Camp 'No'?
Post by: Hoss on January 20, 2010, 02:36:59 PM
Wow.

And before you start in about this being biased, I'm going blame both administrations for covering this up.  Bush because it happened on his watch, but Obama is even worse here for letting the lie fester, especially after his promise to close this base.

Duplicate post, patric posted under another topic. I got about 1/2 way through the article this morning. I think everyone wants to believe things like this don't happen because we don't see it personally. The description of manner of death of the individuals, if true, is horrifying. This will really ramp up rage from President Obama's more liberal supporters for Gitmo not being anywhere close to being closed within a year as promised.

No, comprehension issue on your part.  His liberal supporters are or will be upset for Gitmo not being closed yet.  I have no idea if the allegations in this story are true.  If they are, the manner of deaths, as described, are horrifying.  It's a simple statement, not a change in condition for me.
