BBC News: Reports that the first terrorist from the Guantanamo Prison tried in US Civilian Court has been found guilty of only one count out of 286. This is a massive failure for the Obama Presidency, there are only so many defeats President Obama can take before he faces a challenge for the Democratic nomination in 2012. The NEW ERA of Obama that looked to place suspected terrorists in the US Civilian Court System has to come to an end, the Obama Administration has to place terrorists in Military Courts, what if this first Guantanamo Prisoner had been found not guilty of all the charges, Obama could have faced Impeachment by the Republican House in January, but in some respects Obama has been lucky one charge has worked but Obama cant count on that for the rest of the prisoners, thus POTUS should state that all those at Guantanamo will be tried by the US military and then the key will be throw away, Obama has to get tough or he will make Jimmy Carter look like a leader.
