“Why is Guantanamo a litmus test for idiocy? The new distinctions that Guantanamo represent must suffer the examination and critisim that all new distinctions should suffer. The nation and our ideology have and will continue to pay a price for Guantanamo and while I think it has been worth it, I don’t think it has been so “worth it” that we should not constantly assess whether it worth it to continue.”
Huh, Are you fer it or against it?!? Speak English, man.
I'm for it because it constrains terrorists that want to attack us in a place that is all but impossible to escape from or be liberated.
I can see a potential problem with it because it places human beings in limbo in what appears to be the exclusive power of only one branch of government with an entirely new set of terms and definitions not covered by any law or treaty. I trust the current administration with Gitmo, I don't know about trusting it with a Clinton or a Reno.
