Gitmo to remain open for business (or terrorists)
Apparently, the same Democrats who for 5 or 6 years have been eager to close Gitmo have had a change of heart now that they are in power. With Obama's determination to make good on a campaign promise to close the prison, Dems in Congress have now decided that the place is acceptable. Now, both Obama and Congress can have it both ways: Obama can claim he made good on his promise, but was thwarted by Congress (and will leave out "Democrat-controlled") and Dems in Congress will claim they were keeping America's security in the forefront. And no one will ask about all those times the Dems insisted that the facilty be closed. Nope. Can't question the Dems about doing an about-face on one of their campaign themes from 2006 and 2008. That might mean questioning the Dems true intent of their campaign themes.
