Earlier, in a symbolic gesture, French President Nicolas Sarkozy told Obama that France would accept a prisoner from the controversial detention center where terrorist suspects are held if that would facilitate its closing.
Saying that he was determined to "speak the truth," Sarkozy said that Guantanamo "was not in keeping with U.S. values." He said democratic states have a responsibility to speak honestly and do what they say, and that Guantanamo was a contradiction in that standard.
Obama said the U.S. would need help in finding a place to send those held at the center. He thanked Sarkozy for "being good to his word."
Isn't that swell, that's a typically empty assed gesture from France and it's somewhat new leader Nicolas Sarkozy, that's pronounced Sar-Ko-zy, (who when elected was still called Sar-kozy the last time I checked) who was expected to be a little more compliant with the US than his jerkoff predecessor Jock Strap Chirac.....
So much for that hope and obviously Obama has only wiggled one more concession out of the French whiners (or winers if you prefer..lol) than Bush was able to, one filthy Muslim terrorist out of a couple hundred.
Great diplomacy. All pomp and circumstance and no beef.
In addition he also want's to neuter the US and Allies' nuke arsenals just as the medeival Muslims are completing their personal Manhattan projects
