The Hill: Reports that Congress is getting worried with the Obama plan to close down Guantanamo Bay and send suspect terrorists back to countries with known terror links. As the article notes the Obama Administration has suspended returns to Yemen after the failed Christmas terror attempt, the Congress wants a general suspension. The Obama Administration has to be careful, if it stops all transfers the left will go bonkers, the will claim that Obama is just another Bush 43, but should the transfers lead to another terror attack then the Obama Administration is finished and could be out of power in 2012. When it comes to such issues, Obama does not have the final say, he can go blue in the face on extending his hand to the Muslim world but if extreme Islamic terrorists say NO and just attack on their calender the Obama White House will one day face a choice, either be tough as Bush 43 or lose re-election. Politics is a brutal game folks, its about winners and losers, does Obama want to be another failed Jimmy Carter.
