I won't have lost until the end of next year, but I do consider him to have failed on this file. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DanG 1 #10 March 8, 2011 I tend to lean a little left, and generally like Obama, but I won't defend his handling of Guantanamo. It should have been closed immediately, and I'm very disappointed that he couldn't find the stones to do it. He has certainly broken this promise. In all fairness, you have to admit "ZerObama" is really lame. - Dan G Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It should have been closed immediately, and I'm very disappointed that he couldn't find the stones to do it. He has certainly broken this promise. My feeling as well. I'm very unhappy about this. This was a "core ideological" promise he should have kept, and about which I felt strongly. I feel that, not having kept it, Obama owes us (who voted for him) as detailed an explanation as genuine national security will permit. QuoteOn this issue, he's just like Bush. Not just this issue, but a lot of shit coming out of the Justice Department, too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DanG 1 #17 March 8, 2011 Trying people under military tribunals is not a war crime. It is a broken promise, but not against the law of war. Torturing them, however, is. If you have evidence that Obama is sanctioning torture, please provide it. - Dan G Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
futuredivot 0 #18 March 8, 2011 No. More likely, after being called out on doing the same things they accuse others of doing (not playing the ball) they will ignore this thread hoping that everyone forgets their glaring inconsistency. Or at best will respond to a post like this one that allows them to ignore the original topic.

DaVinci 0 #20 March 8, 2011 QuoteThe quality of your denigrations is declining precipitously. You guys really need a better writer. QuotePersonal attacks are any variation on the theme of "you're an idiot." And QuotePersonal attacks It is important to realize that a personal attack is any attack (slurs, insults, denigrations, implications about their mothers, etc) or threat against another poster. Any such attack is not permitted here. This is true even if you are absolutely, 100% sure that the poster is stupid, or ignorant, or childish, or an ass. It doesn't matter if you think it is true or not, or even if you can prove they are an ass. You can't post such messages here. If you feel it is important to post such things, unmoderated forums like rec.skydiving do not have any such restrictions. Clever insults that attempt to get around the above (i.e. "I like rabbits" "anyone who likes rabbits and posts here is an idiot") will result in the same sort of bans/locks/thread deletions that a personal attack will.
