The President’s going to do his best to make sure dangerous terrorists aren’t released in the United States.
Of course, this is the same guy whose best choice for Vice President was Joe Biden and whose best choice for Treasury Secretary was Timothy Geithner and whose best choice for Health & Human Services Secretary was Tom Daschle and whose best choice of a gift for Queen Elizabeth was an iPod.
CNSNews.com reports:
Attorney General Eric Holder told the House Judiciary Committee that his department will “do its best” to make sure that Guantanamo Bay detainees who pose a threat to the United States are kept imprisoned after President Barack Obama’s order to close down Gitmo is carried out.
The story continues:
Suspected al-Qaeda terrorists aren’t the only ones being detained at Gitmo. Holder was asked about 17 Chinese Muslim detainees at Guantanamo known as Uighurs (WEE-gurs).
“In terms of release [of Uighurs], we don’t have a choice, they have to be released,” said Holder during the testimony. “Unless (you’re asking) us to defy an order from the United States court.”
The Uighurs were cleared of suspected terrorism, but have been held at Gitmo because they cannot be returned to China.
Obama’s current plan is to release the Uighurs in Fairfax County, Virginia. But rest assured that the administration will do its best to keep them from slaughtering too many innocent Americans.
