Comments on: Why Obama Cannot Close Guantanamo Bay http://www.patrickrobinson.com/patrick-robinson-guantanamo-bay/ #1 New York Times Bestselling co-author of Lone Survivor Sun, 04 Apr 2010 18:00:27 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.1 hourly 1 By: Devin85Weiss http://www.patrickrobinson.com/patrick-robinson-guantanamo-bay/comment-page-1/#comment-208 Devin85Weiss Sat, 20 Mar 2010 10:38:40 +0000 http://specwarcom.com/?p=196#comment-208 Barack Obama's book, "The Audacity of Hope," provides a catchy title. It has a taste of bravery mixed with full confidence. You'll find nothing Pollyanna about this. I may well not support everything he tells, but he's our president, and for me, he creates trust. Which will do more for just a country than any amount of backroom deals. Hope gives us energy, and energy sustains us through trying times. Boy, we've had them. I'm from West Texas, and I did not vote for Bush. When McCain ran against Obama, I was a citizen of Arizona, but I gave audacious hope a chance. The fight for progress and laying the foundations of prosperity is just not over. I've seen the quips of those that don't think Obama can do it. But step back a moment. Would anyone have all of us fail only to tarnish the star of an incumbent for whom they didn't vote? Attempting to keep our priorities straight, let's work together with our president and build our future. Barack Obama’s book, “The Audacity of Hope,” provides a catchy title.

It becomes a completely different ballgame when u actually become President and read the actual intel reports and briefings. Let's hope Gitmo never closes down. Can't wait for Intercept. Patrick,

You’re so spot on here. It becomes a completely different ballgame when u actually become President and read the actual intel reports and briefings.

Let’s hope Gitmo never closes down.

Can’t wait for Intercept.
