Are Gitmo detainees headed here?
The Post and Courier ^ | January 30, 2009 | Tony Bartelme

A thick fog hung over Remount Road Tuesday morning as cars and trucks sped in and out of the Naval Weapons

Station. Beyond the base's fence, two stands of trees framed the beige outline of the Navy's brig, an installation

that has made headlines in recent weeks and is poised to make more.

This isn't really about Guantanamo Bay, it is about the way enemy combatants are handled. The same issues will

be raised regardless of where the enemy combatants are housed.

It’s about international war versus domestic crimes.

They’re just gonna bring ‘em to Detroit and turn ‘em loose. They’ll fit right in without even being noticed...

Charleston would be a good place for the Gitmo jihadis. They could send them down to The Citadel for Hell Week to see what real hazing is.

Although Fort Sumpter would be more secure, I find the thought of a Middle Eastern terrorist escaping into North Charleston oddly comforting.

How about loading them up in a C-17, fly them to Thule Greenland, escort them to the base gate and say “you’re free to go”

No! I don't want them anywhere near me. I think John Murtha offered to have them stay at his house.

“I find the thought of a Middle Eastern terrorist escaping into North Charleston oddly comforting.”

Well, that can be interpreted a couple of ways. Moms Mabley once said those “Russian dudes” hadn’t seen trouble until they met a bunch of “citizens” in a New York alley, same can be said for some parts of the Charleston/North Charleston area.

Of course their headed here, the lawyers are waiting like voulchers but not before the liberal,communist appoint their liberal Judges into office. Most of them will be set
free or give a light sentence.
The meltdown of the economy is only one portion of what the
communist left have in store for us, Gitmo and the terrorists is second. obama and the Muslim world look out America.
obama is only a show piece, he is doing what Clinton didn't get done when he was in office.
BOB RUBIN STARTED THE MELTDOWN OF THE ECONOMY.
HE DIDN'T WANT ANYONE LOOKING OVER IS SHOULDERS, HIS SECRET
DEALS WITH THE IMF BANK.
WHAT DID TRENT LOTT AND DICK ARMY KNOW AND COULD THEY HAVE PREVENTED THE MELTDOWN.
WHY IS BARNEY FRANK STILL IN THE SENATE, HE SHOULD BE SERVING A LIFE SENTENCE FOR CHILD PROSTITUTION, HOW MANY OF THOSE CHILDREN SERVIVED?
New York has been hyjacked by the liberal, communist rats and nobody can stop it. Illinois has no intentions of changing anything, they just replaced one criminal with another. If Illinois wanted a change they would have put in
someone from another party, it takes a two party system and without it their can only be corruption.
Gitmo is only one small part of the puzzle.
The Communist party has to take control of all the key positions and they have that just about under control. The need the military turned over to the UN like Clinton wanted to do and using the military against us. You have to remember Clinton sold us out and long range missiles can now be used against us.
Remember the Naval bass in California that Clinton closed down? Clinton was in the process of leasing that bass to China, I believe World Net Daily, Joseph Ferrah exposed it
and alerted some of our Senators,once again our government asleep. HILLARY, FIRST STOP CHINA.
Look at the massive land grab in Utah, illegally closing down the coal mine in Utah.
Our forefathers said that each state should have their own militia, and each state has their own laws in forming a militia and it should be used to take back our country and remove the corruption. The Constitution calls for the removal of the corruption from our government. they must call to remove the corrupt parties or they must resign.
POLISI AND REID HAVE NOT CALLED FOR THE REMOVAL OF THE NOW CRIMINALS THAT SIT IN OUR GOVERNMENT, THAT MAKES THEM ILLIGALLY HOLDING ON TO THEIR SEATS.
WE ARE NOW SITTING WITH TWO ILLEGAL BODIES OF GOVERNMENT.
The Republican party needs to bring that to their attention,
they can't sign bills and make laws, the Stimulus package is
illegal, they can’ t pass that bill. Many members are illegally holding on to their seats.
WE HAVE NO LEGAL GOVERNMENT IN PLACE.

There’s nothing wrong with housing them at Gitmo.

You know, considering some of the psycho scum we’ve got locked up in the Supermax prisons about the worst thing we could do to the Gitmo terrorists is turn them loose in the general population. Let them be some mass-murderers girlfriend for a while.
