This morning President Obama Addresses the GITMO with the American people with the Unites States Constitution, Declaration of Independance, and Bill of Rights standing in the backgorund. He stood up for them in addressing his unbending faith in the due process of detainees that have been drifting in legal limbo for years since the 9/11 poop fest by the former administration. He addressed secrecy, propaganda, fear made decisions, fear induced policy, fear injection speeches, abuse, the lack of due process, the price we will pay socially with the world by keeping this place open and how NONE of it will solve our problems as a nation.
He basically said that this country, this president, this administration was NOT above the law. No, those were not his exact words, but you get the jist. He had the SAME opinion that John Stewart addressed on the Daily Show where he addressed the idea that we have room for serial killer, mass murderers, but we dont have room for these terrorists?? Obama said that NO ONE has EVER successfully escaped one of our super max prisons, those who have no reason to be detained after being investigated will be released but that NO ONE who will cause a threat to our national security will be released. Some will be tried in our traditional court system for crimes of terrorism, others wil be tried by the military courts in regards to acts of war against our nation. With all that, he basically said that this was the way the justice system was supposed to work.
While I was sitting on my bed, moistening it with fantasies of the freedom that was founded by the fathers of this nation, I smiled and thought to myself... This was the same confusing things I was pondering when every freedom we had was going down the tubes because of the former Admin. Even the thought that we have spirraled out of contrl away from justice crossed my worried mind several times. Then the fact that he addressed the same thoughts, the same values I had not only made me feel less like a nut job with some crazy old ideals, but it made me feel secure that the commander and chief held the same principles I hold, this good nation holds, and in an instant, I thought..."OMG! .. Barack Obama is my babys Daddy!"
This man can speak his way out of anything, or into it! Maybe my zeal is soring too high above the clouds but his speech was sooo satisfying, that i didn't wait for shitty Mcgee - Cheneys big counter speech. Yes, that ass clown actually scheduled a COUNTER speech. The man should have enough remaining dignity to cup his balls, and run for the hills yelping! All I have to say to this man is that there is a big difference between leadership, and ones OWN reality! Get a new job dude, you sucked in your last one!
