Nice backtracking.
Don't like the response, move the goal post.
I'm not moving the goal posts at all. In 2009 Obama was idealistic, then he changed, and started to act contrarily in the following months.

Most of the people at Gitmo were never charged. But you know that.
There was no evidence to convict them.
Did you bother to look at the charts I presented.
I'm sure you didn't.
There are thousands more on the internet.
You are just proving my point. He thought he was a dictator in early 2009, as if he could simply go about making proclamations, and everything and everyone would just fall in-line with him.
The politics, logistics, and security concerns never even entered Obama's thought processes. Gitmo was a prisoner of war camp, for the most dangerous captives of the war. You do not capture prisoners in a war, with the intentions of giving them legal trials to determine guilt and punishment, which was another thing that escaped Obama's limited intellect.
I was supposed to look at charts to answer your post? I did not even click any of your links. Am I supposed to sift thru hundreds of words and images, to try and determine the reasoning behind why you chose a bunch of hyperlinks?

Oh, garbage.
He was trying to live up to his campaign promises.
Unfortunately the Rs were going to do their best to thwart his every move.
Did you forget this:
Study Links Medical Costs and Personal Bankruptcy - Businessweek Mitch McConnell, Senate Minority Leader and the man who came to represent the partisan gridlock that marked much of the President’s first term in office after an election night comment in which he vowed to prioritize making Obama a one-term president, has commented on the failure of his stated mission on the eve of Obama’s re-election.
You make things up, I provide links to valid information.
We know that facts don't faze you.
And it wasn't a disgrace to have the First Lady announce the winner of Best Picture. Jack Nicholson was the presenter.
I agree that it was not a disgrace, but is was political.
The irony struck me, as the wife of a president, who absented himself from any involvement during a real life attempt to rescue US diplomats in Libya, is handing out an Oscar for a movie which portrayed the heroic rescue of US diplomats in Iran.
I view it as the O's seeking that leftist quest for equality. Of course, the pursuit itself negates the results although it does pad the ego with a false sense of achievement. Like a perp who commits a crime for notoriety, they get the attention but at a loss to any who are aware of the act.
The real failure is in not recognizing that equality is nothing more than self acceptance.
Agreed, by putting himself out in public as a pop star is a way to endear himself to the public, in an attempt to armor himself from ridicule from his inept job performance. This is how celebrities can go before a jury trial and beat murder raps and lesser crimes; their pop culture fame shields them.
