the trouble is is that you first and last sentences are still as obuse as ever. (Quoted as written)
Glad to help you out. I'll keep all the references on an elementary level - Wikipedia.
The first sentence...."Wow - running another play from the Jimmy Carter Presidency play-book."
Once upon a time there was a very nice, kind, and good intending man called Jimmy Carter. An evil paranoid man called Richard Nixon was President and because of his paranoid stupidity destroyed any confidence a responsible person could have in the government of the United States. The people wanted someone with no experience and connection to the 'insiders' in Washingto DC where all Presidents live. They elected that exactly in the person called Jimmy Carter. He was a VERY good man who was an officer on a submarine, grew peanuts, and lusted in his heart for woman, but never ever ever acted upon that lust.
When Mr. Carter became President Carter he thought everyone in the world was nice and good like him. He also thought that all those secret groups like the CIA, were 'bad' because they kept secrets on people and that very bad man, Mr. Nixon, used them for doing bad things. So President Carter took away most of their money and toys, and stopped them from doing anything 'secret'.
One of the best friends of the CIA was a man called the Shah of Iran . Sometimes he was good, sometimes he was bad, but because he was a friend of the CIA and sometimes told them secrets, President Carter didn't like him. So President Carter made friends with another man who called himself the Ayatollah Khomeini.
The Ayatollah fooled President Carter who thought he was a good religious man who would do better for his people than the Shah. But guess what? As soon as President Carter got rid of the Shah and put in his friend the Ayatollah, the Ayatollah had a big party where he and all his religious followers laughed and taunted President Carter for being so silly and stupid for believing him.
You see, because President Carter had taken all the money and power away from the CIA he didn't know any of the Ayatollah secrets. The Ayatollah became a very powerful man and he collected many men just like him who hated the US and tried to destroy it. He even took over a big house in the Ayatollah's far away land where many US people lived and worked and kept them there for 444 days until, guess what? President Carter wasn't President any more and a whole bunch of different people came and got to live in Washington and good ideas that President Carter had, like alternative fuels (that's like gasoline which make cars go vroooom!), and social responsibility, and just being 'good' like him were quickly forgotten.
Soon everyone in Washington belonged to a 'special interest'; which isn't like 'special class' but instead just means they are doing things to benefit business and industries and not people. And they live there to this very day.
When President Obama takes away all the toys, money, and ability from the CIA now, he is starting an action similar to President Carter. When another bad man, like the Ayatollah takes advantage of it, all the people in the US may end up with the most evil, bad, and strict people moving back into Washington when they blame him and all his friends for the bad things that happen because the US doesn't know anyone else's secrets.
Then, nobody will live happily ever after...
The last..."since Gitmo is still open, will he investigate there - or just use it for those bastard CIA agents trying to determine where the next 9/11 incident will occur?"
Once upon a time, when President Obama was Mr. Obama and soliciting votes he committed to closing a place the the US occupies in Cuba and has a military base called Guantanmo Bay, or GITMO for short. At this base, there because of a long standing lease, a prior President, now a mister, put some people he thought were 'bad' and had done bad or planned to do 'bad' things to this country. They didn't wear uniforms but claimed to be at 'war'. Were they prisoners of war, or just bad men who committed a crime? Where they entitled to a trial for their crimes or should they be held as prisoners? Well, neither the prior President or Congress, or all his advisers could decide so the 'bad' men sat there.
While they were sitting there, some men from an organization called the 'Central Intelligence Agency' or CIA; established during a war referred to as WWII to collect information and protect the security of the USA, chatted with them to try to find out if any of the bad men friends had plans to do more bad things like flying planes into buildings occupied by civilians; as had happened in a place called NYC on 9/11/2001.
Now some people, Mr. Obama being one of them, thought that the people from the CIA were a bit too harsh in the techniques used in questioning the 'bad' men. He said that the prison on GITMO should be closed, announcing he would do so just as soon as he became President Obama. And guess what, he did become President and he did sign an order to close that evil prison!
But no other place in the world wanted the 'bad' men sent to them. Not any of the States in the United States, not any country. So Gitmo is still there and so are the 'bad' men.
Now, President Obama has been sad. Nobody seems to want to do any of the good things he wants to do. Worse they are blaming him for not doing any of the the things he said he was going to do. So President Obama and all his friends in Washington decided that this would be the perfect time to yell at the men from the CIA and prosecute (that means put them in jail) them for getting answers to questions that may have saved US citizens' lives, but were only answered because the 'bad' men thought that the CIA men were going to hurt them and their families. So, President Obama thinks the CIA men are the REAL 'bad' men and wants them to go to prison.
The sentence you don't understand, was suggesting that President can use the same place in Cuba, Gitmo, to house those evil CIA men since he thinks that even if they may have protected us, they should not get answers by holding their heads under water or threatening to beat or their families. President Obama wants to sit down and talk to all the bad men so that we can all live-Happily ever after....
