It was only after the Christmas Day terror attack in Detroit that U.S. officials learned that Abdulmuttalab had been issued a visa by the U.S. Embassy in London valid from June 16, 2008, through June 12, 2010.

George W. Bush Let Terrorists Behind Christmas Bombing Out Of Gitmo

Brian Ross of ABC News reports that two of the four men behind the plot to blow up a U.S. airliner on Christmas Day were actually prisoners of the United States and that, under the leadership of President George W. Bush, were released into a Saudi art rehabilitation program.

According to Defense Department records, Muhamad Attik al-Harbi (now known as Muhamad al-Awfi) and Said Ali Shari were released from detention at Guantanamo Bay in 2007 despite allegations of material support for military operations in Afghanistan. Naturally, they were never tried on those charges and al-Awfi reportedly was refused access to his own passport to refute allegations made against him. Shari was reportedly killed in an airstrike on Christmas Eve, and is suspected in the murder of 6 Christian missionaries in Yemen.

3. So as of Jan 20th any visa issued is Obama's responsibility?

Do you have anything to support why he shouldn't have been given a visa? Should we start banning Visas to brown people now?

6. Well didn't you know it happened a year before Obama took office

and the republicans can blame democrats for anything happening then. After all the blamed Clinton for the attack on the Twin Towers. While the human piece of excrement sat on his butt and said to the world "I covered my a**"
