What possible difference could there be in incarcerating them at Guantanamo or at Pendleton? Sounds like they want to move them just to move them.

This guy is the one who was fired by Bush admin after the 04 election. He was soft on corruption in NM so Bush had him replaced. Of course the messiah figures since Bush fired him ,he will be perfect to try the terrorists at GITMO..

Soon to be on a street near you, Jihadi’s from GITMO let off by Obama and the incompetent US ATTY for NM fired by Bush.
