Democrats Block DeMint Amendment to Extend Ban on GITMO detainees being brought to U.S. Soil

Earlier today, Senator Jim DeMint sought a vote on his amendment to extend the ban on terrorists detained at Guantanamo Bay from being brought to American soil. Unfortunately, Senate Democrats blocked his effort and refused any debate or vote on the matter.

rockhuddy,

Here's a thought you may not have considered: Do you want a bunch of America hating Thugs on our soil, making friends with traitors in prison who would love to destroy innocent lives, and carrying out attacks on us, or would you rather have them at least a bit removed from our soil, so that when these jackals attempt to launch an attack, we just might have enough time to respond before any damage can be done? Just think about it seriously before you answer.

Jeez, Mikulski is still in the Senate. She needs to go home.

0bama's Health Care Reform... Will it help America's denizens. .? Your view's need to be heard!! Goto my utube channel page and find out how.

You're right. If The Obama Administration won't listen to us then we shouldn't listen to them. Nancy Pelosi's a Know-it-All and her opinon doesn't matter. The only reason Nancy Pelosi is pushing to get Obama's Health Care Plan passed is because she's afraid of losing her job.

This is a disgrace. Obama and Holder are doing everything they can to taunt Al Queda with no compassion for the famiies of the 9/11 families. neither of them give a hoot about the opinion of the American citizens. It's a big power grab like everything else they do against America. This is disgraceful. God willing we will balance the checks and balances in Congress in 2010 and take them down.

[LADYNRED70461]

Let's hope so!

[rockhuddy]

Because I condemn jailing people indefinitely without trials I'm a liberal? In fact, I support liberty and voluntary association through the market so I am a libertarian or an anarchist. I probably despise Obama more than you do, but it's hard to justify kidnapping people and holding them for as long as you want without proving they're guilty of a crime. It is wholly immoral to do this to someone, and if it continues it will eventually be done to dissenters such as myself here at home.

[LADYNRED70461]

Go drink some Jim Jones Kool Aid.

You Liberals make me sick. you're going down in 2010 god willing! i pray for the day Obama is led off in cuffs with nancy Pelosi attached. Get out of America traitor.

[LADYNRED70461]

Because they want to try president bush, Dick Cheney and the CIA. That is the REAL AGENDA.

[LADYNRED70461]

Tell me did the people killed in the twin towers have any recourse to contest their murders? If you have no love for America PLEASE LEAVE. Otherwise fight for her instead of against her.These people just like the "gimme people" have no entiltlement to anything. They asked to be executed.Their wishes should definitely be granted. Let's tuck them under eiderdown quilts, give them swine flu shots and spend millions of dollars

defending them.Obama &Holder are REALLY after

Bush, Cheney & CIA

Everyone under the jurisdiction of the US government should be entitled to the protection of our laws, citizen or not. While I believe in America first, I do not think that foreigners are second-rate humans as you apparently do.
