Damn, I think I met her in a Dallas bar.
That's my sister you're talking about!
And here come the google gifs in his chase for the last word lol.
As I said, so predictable...
Nothing personal about your family intended, but it was year-round open season in Dallas bars in the mid-70's/80's/90's/etc.. As Les Miles said it best, "or so I'm told".
With a brilliant opening analysis like: it might be the case, but it might not be...I figure pics and videos are more your speed.And here come the google gifs lol.
As I said, so predictable...
Lol
You think that was a mic drop moment?
Lol
I'm not sure staying in Afgan will be considered a strong neo con policy. That may be a stretch. It could play out that way but I'm not seeing that right now. Too many distractions for people to see through right now anyway.
Why do you believe it will not be considered a strong neocon policy?

It's not a significant change to the status quo. As long as the conflict intensity doesn't go up there is no difference. Most likely additional troops will remain on post for most of the time and casualty increases will be negligible. It has the look of Trump throwing the neo cons scraps from the table and nothing more.
The terrorists mentioned in the article were not ones kept at Gitmo. For instance, Moussaoui was never held in Gitmo...he was arrested in Minnesota. The Boston bomber was from...Boston. The shoe bomber was nabbed in Detroit when his international flight landed.
The NDAA specifically prohibited spending any taxpayer funds to transport any Gitmo prisoners to US prisons as well as to their countries of origin or 4-5 specified nations. I'm sure you can read the law and identify the specific clause banning these prisoners from being transferred to US prisons.
Counselor, my statement was clearly about terrorists held in Gitmo and not domestic terrorists.
