Obama Loses Senate Vote on Gitmo!



It is reported that fifty Gitmo Islamic terrorists are to be released soon; however thanks to a Democratic Party controlled Congress and the complaining of constituents no Islamic terrorists will be released in America. Anyway as of this post no terrorists will be housed in America.

The Leftist
Democrats have flipped about their bleeding heart agenda to close Gitmo if it means Islamic terrorists will be housed in America.

Here is a Move America Forward appeal for money to keep battling President Barack Hussein Obama’s intention of setting Islamic terrorists free from Gitmo. Perhaps MAF is taking a bit too much credit; nonetheless they are in the forefront on countering the slanted Left Mainstream Media BHO propaganda machine to shut Gitmo down.

BREAKING: OBAMA SHOT DOWN! House and Senate Dems DENY Funds to Shut Down Gitmo

Huge Victory for Republicans on GITMO Policy

BREAKING NEWS FROM BREITBART.COM

“Senate votes to block funds for Guantanamo closure”

“In a major rebuke to President Barack Obama, the Senate voted overwhelmingly on Wednesday to block the transfer of Guantanamo detainees to the United States and denied the administration the millions it sought to close the prison.

The 90-6 Senate vote—paired with similar House action last week—was a clear sign to Obama that he faces a tough fight getting the Democratic-controlled Congress to agree with his plans to shut down the detention center and move the 240 detainees.”


Move America Forward is pleased to report that our relentless efforts to warn Congress and the American people about the dangers posed by closing Gitmo and bringing terrorists to America are PAYING OFF.

Earlier this month the House of Representatives stripped $80 Million from an Iraq/Afghanistan funding bill that Obama had requested for shutting down Guantanamo Bay.

House Democrats said ‘no’ to Obama and took the money out because even they realized President Obama has no plan for what to do with the terrorists if he shuts down Guantanamo Bay.

And now, today, the Senate just voted overwhelmingly to keep Guantanamo Bay open …FOR THE TIME BEING.

We have won an important battle, but the fight to keep terrorists OFF American soil continues!

Please
make a contribution so that we can continue our efforts to keep the terrorists IN GITMO!

Republican National Security Rock-Stars hold Press Conference in Response

After today’s vote, Republicans immediately held a press conference to declare a strategic victory because—until further notice – the terrorists will continue to be held safely off American shores at Guantanamo Bay’s state-of-the-art facility.

Senator James Inhofe of Oklahoma, who has worked with MAF many times before specifically on the Gitmo issue, led the press conference. Sen. Inhofe is a hero for American security interests as he is one of the most outspoken and courageous members of Congress when it comes to Guantanamo Bay. We applaud him for all his work and thank him for his support of Move America Forward.

“Though I am very pleased that Democrats in the Senate reversed course and voted today against including the $80 million in the war supplemental to close Gitmo, it is very likely that this funding could be included in future appropriations bills,” Senator Inhofe said. “I am encouraging all of my colleagues to sign onto my legislation to prevent any future funding for detainee transfers to the U.S.

Sen. Inhofe (R-OK)




Today’s press conference included several other Senators. All are vehement supporters of our troops and resolute in their commitment to keeping the terrorists sealed away at Gitmo. Senator Jim DeMint of South Carolina, who helped MAF coordinate our public backlash against the Berkeley City Council after they insulted our troops and the Marines stationed at the Berkeley recruiting center, was also part of the press conference.

Senators David Vitter and Sam Brownback, both who recently visited Gitmo, and Senators Mike Johanns, Bob Bennet, Pat Roberts and Kay Bailey Hutchison also participated in the press conference.
Click Here to watch a short clip from the press conference.

MAF is truly grateful to have the support of such esteemed leaders as Senator Inhofe, Senator Jim DeMint and House Minority Leader John Boehner. Because of our combined efforts, Gitmo will remain open, for at least a little longer, and terrorists will not be welcome on American soil.

We look forward to continuing our work and holding more public events to spread the truth about Guantanamo Bay – it’s the safest place to house the terrorists. Thanks to your support we are making some Democrats think twice about endorsing Obama’s far left agenda. Right now we have to keep the pressure on and continue the fight until we can pass a law that ABSOLUTELY BARS any possibility that terrorist detainees will ever be brought on American soil either for detainment or release!

DON’T LET OBAMA ALLOW GITMO TERRORISTS TO RUN LOOSE IN AMERICA

Make a contribution today to keep our efforts going strong!

Administration will pay welfare to terrorists


This should be no surprise now that President Barack Hussein Obama is moving America deeper into a socialistic welfare State in which Latin American illegal immigrants receive benefits that American citizens do not.

The Obama Administration is going to
settle some of Gitmo’s anti-American Islamic terrorists in the U.S. of A. and allow them to be on the full package government dole.

Gitmo and Wishing Islamic Terrorists Away


I support organizations that are anti-jihadi and pro-security in order for American Liberty to be freely practiced. One of many of those organizations is Move America Forward. Many of these anti-Jihadi organizations operate on a grass roots supply budget as opposed to wealthy Leftists as George Soros or Saudi money funneling to anti-American causes.

MAF (as well this blogger) strongly support keeping Gitmo open. Leftist critics look at Gitmo as a civil rights violation of individuals accused of civilian crimes. Of course this is ludicrous for the thugs in Gitmo are transnational terrorists or possessors of information about transnational terrorism in a war that cannot be defined or measured by the Geneva Conventions.

I mention the
Geneva Conventions because the signatories of the rules of war as applied to POW’s are in a war with Stateless transnational terrorists who have NOT signed the Conventions nor have any intention of doing so.

In essence transnational terrorists are war criminals which no State can be held accountable because of plausible deniability.

These war criminals are conducting a war which Leftists wish to view as civilian crimes accountable to courts which have different rules of law ranging from Western civil rights to totalitarian dictatorships with the lame United Nations as an arbiter of International Law.

Regardless how the Left tries to alter the state of war radical Islam is waging on the West overtly or clandestinely
by utilizing different words to wish the war away, transnational radical Islamic terrorists will be dangerous to Western citizens and the Jews of Israel.

President Barack Hussein Obama has signed the order to close Gitmo. Now the Obama Administration is admitting that some of
those Islamic thugs that deserve no American civil rights afforded to accused common criminals will be released on American soil.

Here is
the MAF email with the usual request for grass roots donations.

Europe hedges on Guantánamo detainees


President Obama is all hot to close Gitmo to make the Lefties in America and Europe ecstatic that these poor radical (most of them) Islamic terrorists should be released.

Check it out! The Lefties in Europe are not so hot to be recipients of Gitmo’s dark murderers from Islam.

BHO, Gitmo and Global Leftists


Helle C. Dale writing for the Heritage Foundation has a brilliant essay concerning President Barack Hussein Obama and Gitmo.

In essence Dale writes about BHO becoming a slave to ‘hear no evil, see no evil, and speak no evil’ Leftists in America and in Europe. (Of course Helle did not use the word “slave” for that might be deemed politically incorrect.)

Helle points out that BHO will receive public acclaim from the global Leftists as long as a released Gitmo inmate (after closing) is involved in a major Islamic Terrorist attack in America or Europe that takes thousands of innocent lives – AGAIN.

My favorite part of the essay is this:

“It is not very clear, though, how much the president is in command of his own policy. During Friday's signing ceremony, Mr. Obama appeared not to know that he would be signing four separate orders and had to refer repeatedly to White House Legal Counsel Greg Craig for answers to questions from the media. Nor was he able to answer a question about the future of the detainees.”


Place a picture of Obama’s public confusion in your mind. Now remember eight years of the Mainstream Media (MSM) nitpicking President Bush about an act judged by the MSM a public gaffe. President Bush was skewered as a political moron by the MSM.

Could it be the Obamasiah is not all knowing and indeed does not know enough to manage his elected Administration? Hmm…

Maybe we could even flash back to the Leftists skewering Sarah Palin for her alleged inexperience even though she had managed the day to day business of an elected Alaskan executive coming to Office despite resistance from the good old boys of the Democratic Party and the Republican Party.

I wonder if McCain or Palin would have acted so confused in public on a major issue. O well. I was just wondering.

What Message is Obama Sending…and to Whom?


I just finished reading an awesome analytical editorial of how Barack Hussein Obama is actually placing Americans at risk by redefining Bush’s methods to keep America terrorist free for a little over the last seven years since 2001.

The Fight to Keep Jihadists Locked Up Begins Today


Below is a Move America Forward appeal for funds to lobby against the closing of Gitmo. Personally I sense there are too many Leftists in power to prevent Gitmo’s closing; however I laud Move America Forward for telling why the war criminal prison at Guantanamo Bay should be remain open.

That reason being that valuable intelligence information has been extracted that has aided in keeping American soil free from major Islamic terrorist attacks and intelligence about Islamic terrorist operations in foreign nations like Iraq and Afghanistan.

The thing the Left oriented Mainstream Media fails to inform Americans about is that many have been released from Gitmo and indeed returned to their Islamic enemy combatant ways in Afghanistan and Iraq.

Gitmo should be kept open until Islamic terrorism is resolved in a victory. If that means a life sentence for Gitmo inmates then so be it.

Obama to Close Gitmo

I firmly believe closing Gitmo and releasing terrorists back to their homelands to rejoin their cadre of Islamic murderers is a huge mistake.

Even the terrorists that are taken through civilian justice rather than military or a special tribunal is flawed thinking.

These terrorists are in essence war criminals and should be tried as such.

And said trials should take place after someone has the cajones to end the Global War on Terror with the goal of all wars – VICTORY.

Melanie Morgan has sent out an email to seek donations against the Leftist agenda of closing Gitmo as well as utilizing an online petition to deliver to the current President-Elect-Barack Hussein Obama.

It is worth posting:

OBAMA PLANNING TO SHUT DOWN GITMO FIRST WEEK IN OFFICE
AP REPORTING 2 CLOSE TO OBAMA SAY ORDER MAY COME IN FIRST WEEK OF PRESIDENCY. WE CANNOT ALLOW OBAMA SHUT DOWN GITMO!

President-elect Barack Obama is likely planning to order the closing of the terrorist prison at Guantanamo Bay on the same day he is sworn into office, Jan. 20 according to an AP story out today. Some of the estimated 250 terrorists, al-Qaida and Taliban suspects could then end up in America, despite outcry from local residents.

This radical plan is naïve, dangerous to Americans, counter-productive for national security, and insulting to our troops at Gitmo who exhibit perfect professionalism. We won’t take it lying down.

GITMO PETITION

MOVE AMERICA FORWARD CONTRIBUTION

Obama should not even consider closing down the prison until he personally visits and meets the brave men and women who work there. They serve with honor and dedication, despite what the mainstream media have said about them. Obama hasn’t even taken the time to send an aide or staffer to see the facilities firsthand.

The only reason for closing Gitmo is to make leftists and some European countries feel better. They have fallen for the tripe that liberals and their cohorts in the media have spread about our troops and the facility. That and they may just truly hate America.

Well I have seen firsthand the conditions in which these dangerous men live. They live in a climate-controlled, state-of-the-art prison with floors clean enough to eat off of. They watch movies while relaxing on an overstuffed sofa; they have six meal plans from which to choose what they eat; they are called to prayer five times a day as proscribed in their Muslim faith; they have three medical personnel for EACH terrorist.

And let’s not forget: Not one American has been charged with a crime for the handling of prisoners in Guantanamo Bay. There’s nothing to suggest that anything approaching a crime has taken place there. We know that our military brings to justice those who break the law within their ranks. So, if something happened that was so bad in Gitmo, why hasn’t anybody been charged? Because NO LAWS WERE BROKEN!

I am outraged at the lies that have been spread about Gitmo and the work of our troops. If Obama foolishly chooses to close Gitmo and ship radical jihadists to America, he is saying that our troops haven’t done their jobs, or worse, that they’ve committed atrocities. That’s outrageous, but it seems that to him the feelings of left-wingers mean more than America’s safety or the honor of our military.

The radicals are already pushing Obama to free an alleged terrorist who killed an American soldier and engaged in other terrorist acts.





Groups on Monday sent a letter to Obama asking him to drop charges against Omar Khadr, who allegedly killed a soldier and committed material support for terrorism and espionage. If Obama won’t suspend the military commissions and drop the charges, these groups want him to send Khadr to Canada for rehabilitation. How do you intend to rehab an alleged terrorist who killed an American soldier?

We must stop this nonsense and send a clear message to Obama: Keep Americans safe from terrorists by holding them at Gitmo. Move America Forward is leading the charge against the radicals’ agenda to bring terrorists to America and near our homes.

All presidents during war time have held enemy combatants in prisons and camps until the war ended. President Abraham Lincoln held as many as 18,000 suspected Confederate sympathizers and tried enemy combatants throughout the Civil War.

Obama must not be allowed to play along with the slanders against our troops. We Americans must stand up now and tell him to cut the nuttiness before it’s too late.

American troops treat them better than they are treated, while liberal politicians keep demanding more rights for the accused

I am back home from my whirlwind tour to Guantanamo Bay to give thanks to our military men and women on duty there. We were honored to bring them new movies on DVD, Oreo cookies, Christmas and Hanukkah cards, MAF commemorative t-shirts and plenty of hugs. For the second year in a row Move America Forward was able to spend part of the Christmas holidays with our great military men and women. Last year it was almost two weeks in Iraq, and this year we were in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

It disturbed me to see how well the terrorists are being treated, and then have to put up with liberal politicians attacking our troops. As one of the soldiers said to me, "It makes us sick when people tell lies about what we do. We are proud to represent America and we do NOTHING to shame our command in chief or the American people." Well, we are more than happy to tell the truth to the American people, which is a job the mainstream media has largely neglected.

Please help Move America Forward tell the story of our U.S. troops to the American public. We need your financial support to keep going. Please click here:

CONTRIBUTE TO MOVE AMERICA FORWARD

The worst comment from an American politician came from Illinois U.S. Senator Dick Durbin. Here is what he said:

"If I ... didn't tell you that it was an FBI agent describing what Americans had done to prisoners [At Guantanamo] in their control, you would most certainly believe this must have been done by Nazis, Soviets In their gulags, or some mad regime, Pol Pot, or others that had no concern for human beings. Sadly, that is not the case. This was the action of Americans in the treatment of their prisoners." (PBS' "The Newshour," 6/17/05)


In reality, the terrorists have better accommodations than our troops. They live in air conditioned state-of-the art new buildings; they have more recreation time than American school children; they get prayer rugs and Qurans, which no non-Muslim U.S. soldier can even touch. They get six different menus to choose from; among their offerings are Baked Tandouri Chicken Breast, Mustard-Dill Baked Fish, Lyonnaise Rice, and Fish Amandine. I don't remember seeing that on the menu at Nazi concentration camps or in Soviet gulags. I doubt Pol Pot offered them in the killing fields of Cambodia.

Or, how about this comment in the Congressional Record by Vermont U.S. Senator Patrick Leahy:

"Now that may sound like an experience from some oppressive and authoritarian regime, something that may have happened under the Taliban, something that Saddam Hussein might have ordered or in the fiction of Kafka." (Congressional Record, 9/28/06, p. S10356)


It is just disgusting what some American politicians are willing to say to appeal to the far left anti-military crowd in the United States. When terrorists decided to smash their TV and the TV room because a Palmolive soap commercial came on that revealed a woman's arm, what do you think our response was? Yes, we got them a new flat screen TV - although this time it is encased in hard Plexiglas so they couldn't destroy it again. Let me put it to you this way: if you children destroyed your family TV because they were mad about something, how long would it take for you to buy them a new one? Or, is a better question, how long will it be before they turn 21 and can buy their own?

The talk we hear from President-elect Obama about closing Guantanamo is ridiculous. In addition to the detention facility, it plays an important part of refueling for the 4th Fleet and in drug interdiction. Instead of junketing around the world, some of these politicians should come down to Gitmo and see for themselves before they start spouting off. With all due respect, I would recommend President-Elect Obama cut his Hawaiian vacation short and head down to Gitmo to see and thank the troops himself before he decides to move some of the terrorist killers to our shores.

Even though we are only a day away from Christmas, many people still have not purchased their care packages for our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan. We decided to keep packing and sending them throughout the rest of the month. So this will still give you an opportunity to say thank you to our troops during the holidays.

The goal of our nationwide tour was to travel across America and encourage Americans to sponsor care packages for our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan. Please click here to sponsor care packages for our deserving troops:

Move America Forward and 12 Days of Christmas

As a special holiday treat Move America Forward will mark our 12 Days of Christmas by chronicling the gifts that American troops have given to us since the first days of our Great Country. Each day we will tell the story of that gift and why we must celebrate our troops.

“On the Eleventh Day of Christmas, Our Soldiers Gave to Us . . .
Safety from Terrorists !!!”

Following the brutal attacks of Sept.11, 2001, men and women marched down and signed up to protect America from her enemy: radical Muslim jihadists. It was the worst attack ever on American soil.

Americans from every corner of life stood up as one against the murderers who took 3,000 innocents that day. But as some Americans got tired of the war, our brave troops continued the fight to keep us safe. Even as politicians and others criticize our troops, claiming that the troops have lost the war in Iraq, our brave American men and women put their lives on the line to protect us.

They do not forget. They have lived the worst: the war, thousands of miles away from home, and have seen their buddies give up their lives to protect our country. But our troops don't quit because true Americans aren't quitters. These military men and women are the best we have, and we at MAF will never forget

Move America Forward marks the Days of Christmas by highlighting some of the gifts our soldiers, Marines, airmen, coasties, sailors have given us since the beginning of our great country.

The veterans of World War II and the Americans who worked to keep the country safe as Nazis and Imperialists plotted our overthrow are called "The Greatest Generation." This generation of troops, who have protected America and fought against radical Muslim Jihadists since that infamous day of Sept. 11, 2001, are "The Generous Generation of Selfless American Heroes."

American troops all volunteer. They give their lives to protect you and me. They sacrifice in extreme ways. So today, on the Eleventh Day of Christmas, MAF salutes them for their work keeping America safe from terrorists.

America's homeland has not been hit again since Osama bin Laden's maniacal murderers attacked on 9/11. We owe this safety to our troops and our intelligence services under the leadership of the Commander-in-Chief…

SUPPORT OUR TROOPS WITH A CARE PACKAGE FOR THE HOLIDAYS

Our men and women today, and during every war, have continued to defend our security. We have to continue to defend and support them. There is no better way than by sending a care package of goodies that they will really appreciate.

Most important, you can write your own personal note to an individual military man or woman in Iraq or Afghanistan. Your personal comments will go with the care package. Our troops can get lonely during the holidays. They are thousands of miles away from their families and their homes in America. Your personal note will lift their spirits during the holidays.
