Obama May Not Meet Guantanamo Closing Promise

The realities of the White House are being discovered by President Barack Obama. He is finding promises are easy to make. He didn't know. How could he know?

This isn't to say his goals were bad. The process is far more complex than he realized.

Will there be an outcry by antiwar supporters or cheering on by prowar people. Not likely.
