tolls from the terrorists they targeted dwarfed estimates of civilian kauscasualties. he made a renewed push to close guantanamo bay and asked congress to lift restrictions from gitmo and speed up the process of trials and military commissions and transferring detainees. a lot to chew on and we're going to start with congressman tho thornberry, a member of the house armed services and intelligence. congressman, what is your reaction? >> well, i thought it was interesting. when he was interrupted and went off-script the president said he's these are serious issues we can't gloss over and yet he's also seemed to say in the speech that we can finish defeating al qaeda and get back to a pre- 9/11 sort of mentality. well, that's kind of glossing over, i think, a lot of the details. even on guantanamo, he said if we are just committed to cloeing it we can work out the details later and what happens to people there and so forth. that's kind of glossing over what's been the hold-up.
