Precisely, he does not like Gitmo, and believes it makes people hate us, so he wants them out, he has said this many, many times.

Obviously there is a reason the military wants them held at Gitmo and not Leavennworth right now.

Sorry, a wartime President Huck is not. So be it, if primary voters want a kinder gentler CIC, and no more icky war, then they will have it.

If he is nominated I hope the President and VP will decide to bring our troops home from Iraq and Afghanistan, ASAP.

If the Supreme Court can tell President Bush that Gitmo detainees are protected by the Geneva convention, then what is the point of keeping them there?

"Other facilities, like Fort Leavenworth, can serve the same purpose without the controversy."

If Huckabee had the brains of a gnat he would know that since Leavenworth is US territory the inmates would be granted a major increase in civil safeguards and rights to which they really are not entitled. That's why they are interned in a location that is NOT sovereign US territory. But why the heck should the Huckster be bothered with such details. The dumb squat is only running for president.
