There's a lot of intellectual dishonesty there, Scotty, and I'm
betting you know that. He isn't going to just "stop" the prosecutions,
and that's that. He is TEMPORARILY halting them while the new admin.
evaluates how to proceed.

"Notice of the decision came in a legal filing in Guantánamo by
military prosecutors just before midnight Tuesday. The decision, which
had been expected as part of Mr. Obama’s pledge to close the detention
camp, was described as a pause in all war-crimes proceedings there so
that the new administration can evaluate how to proceed with
prosecutions"

Oh, well, I guess I never ever thought you'd give the guy the
slightest chance, nor the benefit of doubt. Some of you were deeming
him an utter failure as president before he even stepped foot into the
White House.

Hopefully he'll wise up and send the whole lot of them back to their own
countries. Problem solved.
