Once again, the Republican Party has taken something way out of context, and is now trying to claim that President Obama and the Democrats want to give Guantanamo Bay detainees welfare to come live in America. Not only are they wrong about the proposal, but they've apparently forgotten about the fact that only 2 inmates have been prosecuted, dozens have been released without being charges (but after being tortured) and we destroyed their lives. Mike Papantonio of Air America's Ring of Fire takes on the Bulls and Bears on Fox News to debate the issue.

1. This video made me physically angry
Most fox news videos like to twist the truth and make it seem like facts are there when there aren't any. This video was a bunch of morons being told the truth and simply fucking ignoring it. If I met them in public I would probably punch them in the face.

What part about 60 suspects cleared of charges do those fucking sad excuses for human beings not get? Seriously! I mean come on this is just ridiculous. I think Papantonio was waaaaay to easy on these guys. They'd be dragging me off the set kicking and screaming if I was in his place.

It's just a fucking disgrace. :argh:

2. They never touch on the fact that some "detainees"
could possibly be innocent. Oh no, these are the worst of the worst!

Welcome to DU!

3. I thought Pap
did great. Those other douches were shown up as the ill-informed, judgmental torture-lovers that they are.
