WASHINGTON (Reuters) – President Barack Obama on Thursday ordered the closing of Guantanamo prison and may start naming troubleshooters for the Middle East and Iran as he moves swiftly to repair America's tarnished image abroad. In a first-week flurry of activity focused squarely on rolling back some of predecessor George W. Bush's policies, Obama set a one-year deadline for shutting Guantanamo, barred harsh treatment of terrorism suspects held there and also closed secret CIA jails overseas.

And the results are pouring in! Terrorists around the world are rejoicing at our improved image and how it will make their job of killing us so much easier. "Before, many brothers were concerned they might be imprisoned and tortured. They did not want to have panties placed on their head like at Abu Ghraib. " said Abu Ibin Killinya, Al Quaeda spokesman. "Now they are more confidant and ready to kill the infidel. This is change we can believe in!"

It's all your's now, Obama!
George Bush is now gone. What will liberals do, they no longer have someone to blame for everything that goes wrong in the world? Yes, evil GWB, the man who gave more money to Africa to fight AIDS and poverty than any previous president. The man who gave us a medicare prescription drug benefit. The man who toppled the evil Taliban and the psychotic Sadaam, giving 50 million people a chance to live in freedom, while preventing any terror attacks in the US for 7 years. Bush made some mistakes, which were front page matterial for years. His successes were ignored. Now Obama can be held responsible for everything. Liberals must demand he withdraw from Iraq today. Leave Afghanistan tomorrow. Close Gitmo, stop interrogating terrorists, stop tapping their phones, quit looking at call history data. Oh, and still keep us 100% safe. Good luck, Obama. You'll need it.

Obama condemns Americans to die needlessly!
I haven't posted since the election, thought I'd give Obama a chance before criticizing him, but his recent decision to eliminate 'harsh' interrogation of terrorists forces me to respond. In essence, what Obama is saying is that he will let Americans die because he doesn't want to make terrorists uncomfortable. It has been documented that the harsh treatment of certain AlQuaeda big shots caused them to reveal several terror operations, some that were close to being implemented, and as a result saved countless lives. That all changes now. Terrorists captured red-handed can laugh at their captors and refuse to cooperate in any way, sitting back and letting their plans unfold and watching innocent people die. Make no mistake, people will die as a result of this decision. People that otherwise might have been saved. In his first big national security test, Obama put himself on the side of the terrorists, which is exactly why I didn't vote for him.
