Major Garrett was barred from asking a question Obama didn't want to answer. Why should Americans pay taxes to support people accused of conspiring against the United States?

  • what a stupid video all major garret was trying to do was somehow link government spending to suspected terrorists and "welfare to terrorists" Its a dumb question and a set up question all he wants to do is get a yes answer so his people at fox can lead with "Obama supports welfare for terrorists". And the idiot that made this video can fuck off you are so stupid! that you can't see that and so partisan to think that any president would answer such a loaded question.

  • @Jcw3g I agree that no President would want to answer that loaded question But Major Garret should have been allowed to ask it anyway. And what Major was also doing was making the point that if the President supports their release then isn't he supporting immediate public assistance for them as well? If 50% of the people oppose their release, Major is citing one reason why. The Pres. could have dodged the question or answered the question honestly. Instead, they Censored the point being made.

  • @mochopz exactly... not propaganda channels that insult the word "news"

  • @peacechild61 TRUE LIKE CBS THERY JUST PUPPETS

  • The idea was to finally put the detainees on trial. The Innocent would be released, and the guilty would be punished. I dont's see what's so shocking about paying repeations to people ACCUSED of conspiring agianst the USA if the accusations turn out to be FALSE. Anyway, Obama didn't even go through with doing that. His party held the absolute majority for two years, but he still managed to blame his failure on the Republicans. No wonder peple are disenchanted with him...

  • @Jcw3g it may be a bit "loaded"....but as Maj. Garret has stated, the Amnesty International, as well as people inside of our government has already stated this.....So to not have our president give a clear stance on the issue, is just fence posting in my opinion.-Stand on the post, not on either side, so one can look as though he is on both sides.-....What Maj. Garret and others have said is very true and is an issue for the administration to deal with.....Why is it such a bad question?

  • The press conference was for news channels.

  • @Jcw3g What's the problem? You don't want a reporter using Democratic tactics on Democrats?

  • @peacechild61 FOX is the worst news station around. It's nothing but the propaganda wing of the neo-con/Right. All US news is biased, but FOX ignores reality in order to spin their distortions. As for American freedoms being flushed GW already did that

  • Confused...Title say Fox was barred but the description says they were there but not allowed to ask questions.

    Also, was his "question" really a question or was it a rant?

  • @peacechild61 What an idiot.. "IslamoMarxist non American fraud"... Any more propaganda you've been spoonfed by Fox and the Right?
