Senator Bonehead.

blog_icon_bonehead.jpgSenator Saxby introduced S. 1071 on Tuesday, which would, “prohibit President Barack Obama from bringing detainees at Guantanamo Bay Naval Base to the United States.”

Whatever their ties to terrorists groups or activities, these individuals should never be given the privilege of crossing our borders, even if incarcerated. To do so would be nothing short of an invitation for al-Qa’ida to operate inside our homeland.

Oh shit. An invitation! Well, we wouldn’t want to do that.. oh wait, we’re already housing terrorists in Supermax (Colorado). Anyone know how to properly dis-invite a terrorist from operating in your homeland?

    They’re all just pandering. They’re not really that dumbfuck crazy. Or maybe they are.

    Apparently Nathan Deal is trying to outdumbass Saxby: http://www.ajc.com/metro/content/metro/stories/2009/05/25/citizenship_bill.html?cxntlid=homepage_tab_newstab

    “So…you’re saying I’m intentionally saying something other than what I think? What motivation would I have for doing that?”

    I don’t think you’re lying I just find it really surprising that people think the GOP is having a hard time obstructing Democrats. They’ve managed to have several party-line votes where every single Republican voted no on an Obama initiative. That’s pretty impressive.

    Conservative, corporate-allied Democrats handed the GOP numerous victories over the past few years, and there was rarely any such thing as party discipline on the Dem. side.

    The GOP may be niching itself out of existence by going so far to the right, but they certainly are doing a pretty good job with what they have to try to stop the Democrats. Heck, that’s why the Dems. chose to do healthcare through reconciliation, because they won’t be able to get all their Dems. lined up even with Franken to get to 60.

    I find it hard to believe that you really think the Republicans are the incompetent ones here.

    “I think I hate them more for not providing competent opposition to the Democrats than I did when they were in power.”

    Considering that the Republican leadership pretty much effortlessly pushed aside the slightest Democratic objection to anything they tried to do, I find it hard to believe that you really think the Republicans are the incompetent ones here.

    “From what I read, the Democratic vote was not so much on the merit of closing GTMO as on their satisfaction with Obama’s plan to close GTMO.”

    While this is their excuse, we have Democratic senators pushing out nonsense talking points about how they won’t allow “any terrorists to come to my state!” (Webb was the latest in this chorus).

    The Republican Party, tho, still can’t go to sleep without their nightlight and blankie, for fear of the terrorist in their closet.

    I’m so sick of this ignorant bullshit from the Republicans. I think I hate them more for not providing competent opposition to the Democrats than I did when they were in power.

    I think the 80-something senators who voted against including money for closing Gitmo are total boneheads too. Did they not know that Obama campaigned on this throughout?
