Karl Rove, one-time deputy chief of staff to former President George W. Bush, spoke to a jam-packed Storer Auditorium at the University of Miami Thursday afternoon.
...
“One year from now, Gitmo won’t be closed,” Rove said.

Okay, President Obama: you've been double-dog dared!

... who cares what Rove says??? - I mean, other than the double-dog dare thing.

BUT: this is the crap that Obama must face.
The Roves of the world don't much matter... but the folks who listen to 'em just might!
As with economic stimulus & many other things, President Obama needs to use his bully pulpit effectively to drag the rest of us, kicking & screaming, along with him.

He IS the President.
W talked us into a pointless war.
Surely Obama, with far greater oratorical/rhetorical skills - can convince us that closing Gitmo is THE RIGHT THING TO DO!

Have a nice day.
