Obama may defy Congress again; close Gitmo via executive action

From The American Thinker Blog:

President Obama is seriously considering defying Congress and closing the terrorist prison camp in Guantanamo, Cuba. He is casting about for a legal justification to bypass the legislature and close the facility via executive action.

By law, the president cannot use any funds appropriated by congress to close the facility or move the prisoners to the mainland. But when has the law ever stopped this president from doing what he wants?

This wouldn't be the case, if the loyal opposition in Congress would actually do their jobs and put up some opposition.
