johnny9fingersA former detainee at Gitmo has been named as the deputy leader of Al Qaeda in Yemen.

This is being touted as a reason why Obama should not close Gitmo: despite of course the fact that Said Ali al-Shihri was released into Saudi custody by the Bush administration.
If it didn't work for GWB....let's keep doing it because it still won't work for Obama. Brilliant thinking except.....evidently Obama's version of Gitmo can't afford to be as lenient as GWB's: I don't know how they come up with this sort of logic sometimes. But let me repeat....GWB's version of Gitmo couldn't stop Said Ali al-Shihri from becoming the Al Qaeda number 2 in Yemen.
What some folk really want is the involuntary internment of all Terrorists, Muslims, Darwinists, Democrats, Palin-ridiculers, Perverts, anti-gun campaigners, and everyone from San Francisco: which is, as we know, Babylon-on-sea.
When folk draw stupid lines in the sand, calling it 'common sense'.....

Date: 2009-01-24 09:53 am (UTC)The story would also seem to suggest that detention in Gitmo is very effective at hardening the determination of would-be-terrorists (or even non-terrorists) to wreak revenge upon american interests by acts of violence and destruction. Al-Qaeda was invented by the CIA and its chief recruiting officer was George 'shit-fer-brains' Bush and his bellicose cronies.
I think President Barry has gotten off to a flying start - what, what ?
