Who likes Obama’s plan to bring terrorists to our backyards?

Anyone who ran a business the way this president runs his administration would have been standing in line at a soup kitchen six months ago. Honestly, watching this president make one brazen decision after another, without so much as asking those who’ll have to do the heavy lifting whether they’re on board, before he goes on record with another speech has been just plain painful.
News came out today that the president has asked the Justice Department to find other possible venues for the 9/11 plotters’ civilian trials. New York’s mayor Bloomberg, the New York governor and just about every Democrat pol in charge up there have finally convinced these incompetent administrators that the people of NYC do not want, nor are they going to stand for the shenanigans of a terror trial blocks away from the 9/11 attacks. Both Republican and Democratic congressmen have mounted a strong effort to refuse funding - predicted to be in the tens of millions — for this foolhardy trial, too.
I’m plum sure cities from coast to coast will be lining up for the honor, aren’t you? Cities fighting 10% and rising unemployment, cities faced with melting revenues, cities already stretched to the max with this president’s foolish economic policies are just going to be jumping at the chance to spend millions they don’t have to put on civilian trials for people who don’t deserve them. Right.
What CEO makes a grandstanding decision like this one without first getting everyone involved fully on board? None.
Which is just another reason why people with postage-stamp sized resumes do not become CEOs.
Now, I wonder how long it’s going to be before the good people of Illinois stand up in open rebellion against this administration’s plan to send Gitmo terrorists to a rural Illinois prison. As much as liberals and their bands of anti-everything-Bush demonstrators have denounced Gitmo, they seem to have utterly failed to understand the realities involved. If one does not have Gitmo, safely separated from the American mainland, then those terrorists have to go somewhere.
And, just like the NYC terror trials are proving to be, closing Gitmo has posed dire problems, evidently completely unanticipated by our teleprompted movie star in the Oval Office. The only way he has been able to get any other country to take handfuls of these terrorists is to bribe them with US aid dollars.
Now, Obama plans to send a couple hundred of these terrorists to rural Illinois, but hasn’t thought through what that will mean for the citizens there. Jack Kemp has a very insightful essay on what kinds of hardships Illinois citizens will soon be facing if this foolhardy plan of the president’s goes through. Like in Israel, whose citizens face this kind of thing every day, American towns will see armed guards on their playgrounds, armed guards in their grocery stores and restaurants, and will face having their homes with round-the-clock bull’s-eyes painted on them, just waiting for the rogue jihadist who wants to shake things up in the little town hosting his imprisoned pals.
Kemp knows all about this kind of life. He spent years in Israel.
Read all about his predictions on what we can expect once Obama brings terrorists to our own backyards. It’s an eye-opening account.

Once again, nobody with a grain of common sense thought this harebrained scheme through to its logical conclusion.
Unbelievable.
A bunch of highly educated fools are running this Country. Hold onto your hats and load up on ammunition.
