The Obama Administration is the "gift that just keeps on giving."
National Intelligence Director Dennis Blair, speaking about those prisoners at Guantanamo Bay (GITMO) who are likely to be released in the United States under new policies adopted by Obama, pointed out that the prisoners
would have to get some sort of welfare to help them start their new lives in the good old US of A. Director Blair apparently thought about this quite a lot and concluded, "We can't put them out on the street."
It must be very hard for our enemies to fully understand American liberals.
Try to put yourself in their shoes for a moment:
First, you are captured on the battlefield where you are trying to kill U.S. soldiers. Then you are imprisoned at GITMO and immediately provided expert medical attention and better nutrition than ever before. Soon lawyers from
some of Washington's most prestigious law firms offer to represent you free of charge.
Then a president is elected who went to a "church" for 20 years whose pastor loved to shout "God Damn America" from the pulpit. Finally, you are told that the president intends to release you inside the country you dream
will be destroyed some day, and the Director of National Intelligence wants you to be paid a stipend by those dreadful infidel taxpayers so that you can adjust to your new life. And just last week, that same president was floating the idea of taking away some health benefits from the soldiers who captured you!
While I ponder the meaning of all this tonight, I intend to stop by Arlington National Cemetery for a reality check.
Pat, I have to agree...I'd like to know where the sense of this is at all. What has happened to our country, and will the sheeple who did this ever wake up?

It all started with the Jane Fonda's in Nam, it has reached the stage of the Obummers..
Think about it, we live in a country where inmates have more rights then their victims and the people that guard them. Go ahead think I am wrong, I work in inmate security. I am scrutinized everyday. I am the one they watch and searched everyday to see if I am bringing in contraband. I am the one that has to write papers on everything things I do in order to CMA (cover my you know what). My integratity is in question everyday. I am the one they blame if I have to defend myself and an inmate gets hurt. The system is become more of a joke everyday.
It costs a fortune to house inmates and they don't have to work. They get free or low cost medical care. They sit around watching cable t.v., because you can't get any other type of reception in a well constructed building. They get 3 square meals, 2 of them have to be hot. They are housed in buildings with a/c and heat. They exercise everyday and are in better shape then most people.
What is fair about this? Sorry just had to sound off.

Sound off all you want young lady. It is about time the people of this great country grew enough balls to speak up. What a bunch of damn sheep.
Check out what Sheriff Joe Arpiao does in Maricopa County Arizona. These clowns get cable tv ok, they get the Disney channel and the Weather channel. He wants them to know how hot it will be in the tents they are housed in and on the chain gangs they are "ALLOWED" to work on. Chain gangs in AZ are not required, it is a privilege the prisoners are allowed in order to get away from sitting in the tents wearing their pink underware. Also they are on a 1200 calorie a day diet, minum required by law.
