When I was in Winston-Salem last week, I took a moment to talk to WXII NBC Greensboro about President Obama’s decision to release 15 suspected terrorists from the Guantanamo Bay detention facility.

It’s disgraceful to our troops, who put their lives on the line every day, to let these terrorists go free. We know that nearly 30 percent of detainees released are confirmed or suspected of having returned to terrorist activity.

This dangerous group includes individuals who served as body guards for Osama Bin Laden, taught terrorist tactics at Al Qaeda training camps, and led attacks against coalition forces.

This administration continues to put our national security at risk in misguided attempts to fulfill campaign pledges and to cement the President’s legacy.
