Biden says Gitmo will close before January

WT: Vice President Joseph R. Biden said Thursday that he expects President Obama to close the military detention center at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, before leaving office in January.

“That is my hope and expectation,” Mr. Biden said during a news conference in Sweden.

Mr. Obama has vowed to close the U.S. military prison in Cuba, but opposition from lawmakers in both parties in Congress repeatedly has blocked his efforts. White House spokesman Josh Earnest said Mr. Obama isn’t giving up on his pledge.

“We’re going to do our best to try to get this closed. And it’s our expectation that that’s what we’ll do,” Mr. Earnest said.  MORE

  1. I understand obama’s motives, when the coalition destroys all those empty ISIS buildings and unmanned vehicles in Iraq and Syria, they need the peaceful, humanitarian people from Gitmo to rebuild them.

  2. Joe spewed, “That is my hope and expectation”???

    WhyTF is that his expectation & hope? This is a level of idiocy that defies comprehension. Most of the terrorists released return to their terror.

    Are they making the case that they’ve been rehabilitated? That their terror days are behind them? That they want to put their feet up and binge watch Netflix?

    No, in fact they’ve admitted that they know “some” of them return to terrorism and the battlefield. So why in God’s name release them???? Will old Joe or Obama/Jarrett be held accountable when one of the releasees carry a suitcase nuke into NY?

    All I’m coming up with is that the level of hate that Obama/Jarrett have for America must be so white hot that even those of us that are aware of it, simply have no idea of the intensity.

    Yeah

  3. Joe ain’t crazy, he’s America’s nemesis.
    He, that asshole, gets “hope and change”. I’ll take the ‘hope and expectation’ that one of the beneficiaries of his and his friend Barry’s “generosity comes back at him like Bitch Karma in the form of a landmine in the sand when he strolls on his filthy Rehoboth Beach.
    This JACKASS absolutely NEVER deserved the silver spoon he has had for decades and he pays it back by SCREWING his country!
