USS Cole Families Press Obama for Answers

So I guess President Obama thought he could close Guantanamo Bay prison and everyone would cheer.

Well, the families of the sailors killed on the USS Cole aren't cheering.

They are demanding that Obama create a 9/11 style commission to investigate the bombing and they want assurances that those responsible will be punished. They are currently being held in Guantanamo.

According to the article, President Obama told them that he was willing to consider a 9/11 style commission to investigate the bombing. Of course, that would mean that this commission would be reviewing policies of the Clinton Administration.

Want to bet that there is no commission ever formed?
