The real problem is not Guantanamo Bay. The problem is that, to a large extent, we are in unexplored territory with this unconventional and complex struggle against extremism.

Actually, the real trouble is that the liberal media and certain congresscritters would rather see Bush taken down that win the War.

Too much frigging transparency. We need to have an aura of the 'great unknown' when you interrogate terrorists. We need LESS transparency.

Yeah, I kinda like the "secret even in success" part.

[Arthur Wildfire! March]

Well, they need to let the voters know that good is happening in a very tangible way. Without that, war fatigue sets in. How to balance the two needs? Secrecy and sharing the feeling of success? That's a tough one.
