The Gitmo Foldo Follies (cont.)

Attorney General Eric Holder is unbowed despite his Gitmo fold, reports the Washington Post.

Sheesh. Unbowed? Such a carefully selected word. The mainstream media continue to cover for Obama Administration personalities. But these tactical propagandists can’t obscure the obvious forever.

After eight years of leftist teeth gnashing and Republican trashing, Khalid Sheikh Muhammad will be tried by a military tribunal. Gitmo remains open –as it damn well should.

Of course The Washington Post portrays Holder as a victim– he’s the “target of Republican attacks.” What the hell did Obama partisans and hard left Democrats do for almost a decade? With the veneer of “fierce moral urgency” (remember that phrase?) they casually accused fellow Americans of committing war crimes.  They made waging war on international terrorists –a complex endeavor– much more difficult. They maligned the reputations and impugned the motives of those who fought it –the responsible leaders with the guts to make tough decisions and patriotic American soldiers who took the war to the terrorist enemy.

War? Many Obamaites don’t believe we’re involved in a long-haul war. They prefer circumlocutions. “Overseas Contingency Operation.” (OCO–which is loco.) Now we have military kinetic action, or military kinetic operations. Yep. Those lawyers and professors with ponytails sure know a lot more than the generals and the PFCs…

Representative Peter King thinks Holder –if he really is a man of principle– should resign. No kidding. Show some fierce morality, Eric.

I’m going to pull this sentence from a recent column about Obama’s Libya policy: “I’ve read the twitchy screed of several apologists who, under the guise of legal opinion, try to provide propaganda cover for Obama’s obvious failure to close Guantanamo Bay. These law school scribblers seek to obscure the big picture by magnifying scrawls on the margin. The big picture? The community organizer has put on a cowboy hat.”

The Gitmo Foldo is done, but be aware Obama’s academic scribblers will scribble for decades. (OCO!. Kinetic Military Action!) These scribblers live in a world of words.  They will erect walls of prose in an attempt to hide the truth from themselves and jive the jiveable.
