• My prayer is that when Obama leaves office as he likely will in January 2013 that he pardon this man who done no wrong to anyone. It is a sin that he's been held as a prisoner of a country bent on showing him off as an "example". This man is innocent. And my prayer is for him to be released. — Aunty (Jan. 09, 2012 5:06 a.m.)
