Presidents Carter and Clinton joined fellow Democrats in saying that it should be shot down. Interesting typo from AP's Liz Sidoti, doncha think?

Molly Hennenberg of FNC reporting on her visit at Gitmo right now.
She ate the same food the terrorists get to eat. Guards have things thrown at them. Terrorists threaten to kill them someday. The guards are told to just deal with it. Bah!

HELLOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
These are TERRORISTS!!!!!
Would these idiots prefer to NOT interrogate them and NOT prevent attacks on innocent US citizens?!
To: oldbrowser
The prison costs about $95 million a year to operate. I spent a year of active duty at GTMO.
The infrastructure for the base is already there and has been functioning for decades. I can't imagine how any tenant command at GTMO could possibly suck up $95 million per year in operating expenses.

An Air Force pilot friend has made the exact remark. Obviously, he's been through SERE school.
He's totally disgusted with this whole play by the Dems / media.

That number probably has all the pay and benefits for the guards included.

Exactly. He'd have to have a food taster if he wanted to eat :-)

"to house foreigners believed ..."
How far do these people have to go to find a reporter who doesn't have a clue as to the basic facts?
These are enemies captured in War and on the battlefield! "Foreigners" captured in a War in a "Foreign" Country - who would have guessed? And I guess the are "believed" to be terrorists when all they were doing is killing U.S. Troops and civilians while on the way to Grandma's house ....

How far do these people have to go to find a reporter who doesn't have a clue as to the basic facts?Close. Taking your idea a step further, how stupid does any have to be not to realize their real goal? What are these morons seeking? How are they looking to benefit America in it's war against terrorism?
To: Mo1
Imagine being a soldier who probably doesn't get to eat as well as the terrorists and has threats shouted and things thrown and is told to "just deal with it".
Molly did say that if the situation gets bad, the terrorists get various creature comforts taken away temporarily. Big whoop.
I THINK she said, but can't confirm, that the terrorists sometimes also threaten to kill the soldiers' families someday. That would require more self control, on the part of soldiers, than I have, that's for sure. And I hope they are spitting in their food. LOL

I suggest they spend the night at the prison - just so it will be known that they saw round-the-clock operation of the facility and got to talk to the prisons, interact with them, eat with them.
Otherwise, it could all just be staged to present a good image.
Afterall, we are paying for their trip and we want the truth - how does it feel to be a prisoner of the U.S?

Only 11 senators? And how many of them have shot their mouths off?
To: Tumbleweed_Connection
Sens Ben Nelson, D-Neb., and Ron Wyden, D-OreI'm surprised they didn't wait until November or December.
