Let's see, about 1 year 4 months ago, President Obama promised that he would close the terrorist home, the military detention facility at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, or Gitmo.
So, how is it going now? Well, Club Gitmo is not close to being closed.
From The Speaker's Lobby and Fox News: "A key Senate committee has dealt another setback to the Obama Administration's efforts to close the military detention facility at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
Senate Armed Services Committee Chairman Carl Levin, D-MI, told reporters Friday, "The money for a prison in Illinois was struck...a prison available to house detainees from Gitmo. That was a voice vote. A clear majority voted 'AYE.' I and a few others voted against striking those funds."
The White House announced Dec. 15 that it intended to transfer Gitmo detainees to the Thomson Correctional Center in rural, northwestern Illinois and needed $245 million to do so." http://congress.blogs.foxnews.com/2010/05/28/key-senate-committee-rejects-obama-request-for-alternate-gitmo-prison/?test=latestnews
So, how has this been reported, another failure by the Obama administration, by the media? A lot of snoring by the media who is asleep at the switch and also are busy sucking up to Obama.
Don't be promising things you cannot keep.
