Obama Takes On Gitmo

No, I'm not complaining that he's doing it and I'm not mad at him for taking his blessed time about it, I just know double speak when I hear and read it and that is it. Check out the news whenever Obama speaks about Guantanamo, there's always a 'but' in there. It's also been plastered enough on the news that the general public will assume it has happened after a time even if it hasn't or--FAR MORE LIKELY-- When he creates his own version.
Remember, this kind of inhumane treatment has been going on long before Gitmo and will continue as long as we have group entities like the CIA and a world policing military, they'll just go somewhere else. They've admitted it on numerous occasions from a plethora of sources. All Gitmo is is a symbol. They'll be happy to get rid of the symbol in order to keep their system.

Hail to the Chief....

Today, the first African-American man to be president started his term and as the millions rejoice across this nation, I cannot help to wonder what they will do when they realize this "hope" is a farce.

Let's put this in simple terms for you; Bush is hated for massively increasing military spending and engaging in war, Obama aims to triple the size of the military. Bush's admin recently pushed for bailouts of companies that will cause massive economic problems in the near future. Obama wants to make that amount look like nickels to his benjamins. I could go on and on, but the point is that a man who is going to do exactly what Bush did, just far more in amplitude is running the show now. If you believe that Bush messed us up, how can you believe Obama won't be worse? I don't care what quibbles the party lines and talking heads might throw at you, there is nothing that seperates Obama from Bush in the political scheme of things save this. He will get away with far more. On this day my heart weeps, because Obama is a piss poor human being to have the honor to be the first African-American in the White House. There are far better, more capable, and aware African-Americans who really would of been both a triumph over racism and a realistic hope for a better America....
What will people do when they discover Obama is more of the same evils that plagued us with Bush?
