for those who won't click the link:
the obama administration, fearing a battle with Congress that could stall plans to close Guantanamo, has drafted an executive order that would reassert presidential authority to incarcerate terrorism suspects indefinitely, according to three senior government officials with knowledge of White House deliberations.

SSDD.

Great job Obama.

White House Is Drafting Executive Order to Allow Indefinite Detention of Terror Suspects
There is NO WAY Duke would be posting that. It doesn't make obama look very good.

Better modify your thread title - much too vague.

The Obamatrons will come and try and make indefinite detention seem like the greatest thing in the world....even when they vehemently disapproved of the exact same practice before.

He is trying to close Guantanamo. I'd say that sets him apart from Bush.

That's where you're wrong. I don't agree w/this & I cannot understand for the life of me why he is taking this position.
