This is astounding. Its one thing not to know what to do with the detainees, but he didn't know his administration didn't know. He didn't even know there was no plan and that no one in his administration knew either. Talk about a loose hand on the tiller. The ship of state is adrift. President Obama: "And we then provide, uh, the process whereby Guantanamo will be closed, uh, no later than one year from now. We will be, uh. ... Is there a separate, uh, executive order, Greg, with respect to how we're going to dispose of the detainees? Is that, uh, written?" White House counsel Greg Craig: "We'll set up a process." To be at the signing ceremony and not know what he was ordering done with the terrorist inmates is a level of ignorance about equivalent to being a groom at the altar in a wedding ceremony and asking who it is you are marrying. NAncy and Harry and other Congressional leaders - they're running things. Obama is okay just being the figurehead. People who get appointed - they'll have a free hand too. And when they start infighting and struggling with one another ... whoever is best at manipulating Obama will prevail.
