President Obama Might Be Pretty Stupid…

… and by might I mean is. Unless someone can make sense of the following quote for me:

President Barack Obama said in an interview aired on Monday he worried that detainees freed from the U.S. military prison at Guantanamo, Cuba, might resume attacks on the United States.

But he told NBC News that closure of the prison was a matter of upholding U.S. values and law, and that a failure to do so would ultimately make Americans less secure.

“Can we guarantee that they’re not going to try to participate in another attack? No,” Obama said. “But what I can guarantee is that if we don’t uphold our Constitution and our values, that over time that will make us less safe. And that will be a recruitment tool for organizations like al-Qaeda.”

So releasing known Terrorist from prison to attack us again is safer in the long run? I don’t get this. Somebody please explain it to me.

Yahoo news has the whole story.
