How much did the Obama Administration HURT the SECURITY of OUR NATION?
President Obama
It аƖƖ bеɡаn wіth thе Obama administration's ԁесіѕіοn tο selectively release ѕοmе οf thе memos describing enhanced interrogation techniques utilized іn thе wake οf September 11—thе same techniques thе speaker now acknowledges ѕhе knew аbουt. I disagreed wіth thіѕ ԁесіѕіοn fοr two reasons.
First, іt gave ουr enemies insight іntο hοw wе аrе collecting crucial intelligence frοm ѕοmе οf thе highest-value terrorists іn ουr custody. Anԁ secondly, selectively releasing thе memos ԁіԁ nοt provide thе American people wіth a complete picture οf ουr interrogation program.

A Bound Man: Why We Are Excited About Obama and Why He Can’t Win
Barack Obama: A Biography (Greenwood Biographies)
Obama is absolutely and unequivocally the worst thing that has ever happened to this country. Unless you are anti- American.
Well, so far there haven’t been any attacks on our soil.
How’d the last guy do?
He hurt it so bad that China won’t deal with our dollars, Korea set off a missle, the government tried to kill us all with Swine flu (Obama has stock in Baxter Pharm.
Very much.
He needs to make up his mind, and do it right.
I know he has not been in office that long, but his approach to trying to make enemies into friends is very smart. For example, wanting to lift the embassy off of Cuba? There is a reason we are enemies – they are in a communist dictatorship, and lifting it will encourage it.
Hopefully he will come along, we need to believe in him.
Mhm.
I have never felt more unsafe in America as I have since Obama popped up out of nowhere.
Well, he showed he’s a bubbling idiot of a commander in chief and showed once again his so-called love for America and our military. It was all self-serving as evidenced by the spinning of an incomplete story. Who needs enemies with a pres like this?
How in the world does telling your enemy how you’re going to interrogate them change anything. Do you think people on death row aren’t worried anymore because they know how they’re going to die? Your logic doesn’t work.
Hell he aint do shit! WTF are you all talking about? Damn man you’re worse than Michael Savage.
We won’t know until it is too late.
oh man! what are you tripping about? He made an attempt to be more honest with us, the people.
In your system of logic, if he gave us all of them you’d be mad that our enemies know all our tricks, but happy because now we know. But if he didn’t release any, then you’d be glad our enemies don’t know them (even though torture is not something America has a monopoly on, not by a long shot), but annoyed that he’s hiding information.
Give it a rest, will you? He’s doing great!
We seem fine so far. In fact, our international relations are better than the Bush years. That definitely makes me feel safer.
I think you better get off line you are being tracked.
Hey, I just looked out the window and there is a well dressed Sikh man in a Turban at you front door and you will overreact and kill him only to find out he is your next door neighbor saying hello.
LOL!
What a lame defense of torture. Just wear your swastika and be proud of it.
He is going around the world apologizing for America….?
Does that sound like a strong leader that the world should fear?
First of all you’re assuming terrorists don’t read newspapers. Before the memos were released most people knew the US was water boarding people. It was common knowledge way before Obama became president.
Second, I bet you that invading a country that had nothing to do with 9/11 and declaring the Iraq war a Holy War against Muslims sort of pissed off the Muslim extremists.
Also, it doesn’t matter what information is released. Water Boarding is torture plain and simple. It is not splashing some one in the face with a little water. It is making you feel like you are drowning. That sounds like torture to me. The US under Reagan Signed the UN Charter against torture. So torture is illegal under international law.
He has hurt the security of our country, trashed Americans in Europe and wants to bankrupt America in the process.
He bad for America!
