Is the article correct claiming Bush released the people responsible for heading up Al-Q in Yemen?

al-Shihri, who was released in 2007 under the Bush administration, is now deputy leader of al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula, a group that has claimed responsibility for the Christmas Day attempted bomb attack on a Detroit-bound airliner.

Yahoo as a news source, oh please!
aah yes, 2007 when DEMOCRATS were demanding that bush let the terrorist go or put them on trail in the US. I rmember it well.
The idiots on the Right claim that the ACLU and other liberals forced big bad George Bush to release them.
Yes and to think Obama wants to send more gitmonians to Yemen as well!
Leave it to the media to find a way to blame Bush. Liberals want it both ways. They want all inmates released if there is no supporting evidence, but if that inmate is released and they return to terrorism it is somehow Bush’s fault.
It’s getting ridiculous.
Yes it is true, and these guys were deemed the least threat. Contrary to popular belief, Bush was trying to do something about them in Gitmo too. They wanted to close it, but faced the same problems Obama is facing. What do you think they should do with the other ones? Maybe they will be released on American streets when the trial lawyers get them off in New York.
Yes its true.
I have no idea if it is correct or not, but it wouldn’t surprise me.
It is true and the decision belongs to him and him alone. Now read the other posts and watch the “personal responsibility” crowd push it off on someone else. They are pathetic.
Then again, how is it we are hitting more and more targets in Yemen? Maybe that was the plan all along. You don’t see Obama complaining. CIA works in mysterious ways. BTW. I’m liberal, but not stupid.
Yes he did, and keep in mind he trained them. Just like his daddy trained Bin Laden!!!! and just like Orrin Hatch warned Bin Laden the tomahawks were coming in 1998!!!
I thought that was what the liberals were pushing for…free them so they could kill more of us…

Our presidents are put in office by forces of power who want to destroy the United States. One of the main reasons for treating people horribly in prison is so they will go somewhere when let out of prison and make war on the USA. Same logic behind Obama increasing drone bombings in Pakistan Venezuela and other places. Kill innocent people so their relatives will make war on and kill our brave soldiers.
