Welcome to Illinois, Gitmo Terrorists
Pajamas MEdia ^ | Dec. 17 | Rick Moran

Posted on 12/17/2009 12:53:53 PM PST by AJKauf

If it’s not too premature, I would like to welcome my new neighbors, those detainees from the soon-to-be-closed Guantanamo prison camp, to the greatest state in the country — Illinois.

I know that everyone thinks their own state is tops, but really, let’s get serious. The terrorists will be coming to a state that boasts stupendous agricultural bounty, hard-working and industrious people, and a political system that is the envy of the Western world.

Well … maybe West Newark.

To familiarize you with your new home, allow me to give you some fun facts about Illinois and offer you a look at your soon-to-be-new prison, the Thomson Correctional Center.

“Land of Lincoln”

That’s our state motto. No, Honest Abe was not born here (he was born in Kentucky). He didn’t grow up here either (he spent several years in Indiana). But since both Kentucky and Indiana were a little slow in claiming him as one of their own, he got to be ours by default.

You might also be interested to know that our state amphibian is the Eastern tiger salamander, our state insect is the monarch butterfly, and our state reptile is the painted turtle. And when the state legislature gets around to naming an official jihadist martyr, we’ll let you know.....

I think they’re going to find that the weather is nicer at Gitmo.

Welcome to Illinois, may you freeze your asses off in winter and sweat them off in summer!

Personally, I think someone will try to take these terrorists out even despite all the so-called security.

And we have many hog confinements. I hope a local farmer builds one just southwest or 4 one for each prevailing wind from the new gitmo north.

They could have a separate facility just to house Illinois ex governors. Its a race with NJ.

It's important to reiterate, Gitmo hasn't closed. It just moved. Moved to Gitmo, IL.

Any suggestions for a name?

Gitmo, IL
Gitmo North
Gitmo II...

Hmmm...The question, therefore, is whether the nuke plant a short distance away is more safe or less safe...

Did you listen to Rush yesterday? A guy called in and said there is a nuclear power plant not far from this prison. By your comment, are you saying this is true? I’d halfway hoped the guy was just kidding.

And thank you for creating jobs for our state. We hope you enjoy your stay. We will get to work right away so the prison will be fully islamacized when you check in.

Yowza, them boys better be glad they ain’t going to prison in New York. One of ‘em might drop the soap in the shower and BAM, 72 virgins. If they aren’t kept separated from the genpop something bad will happen to them.

One can only hope ...

"By your comment, are you saying this is true?

Byron nuke is just 53 miles away by road (less by air)

Lasalle nuke is 119 miles away by road (lot less by air)

Another 25 miles or so (from Lasalle) there is Dresden & Braidwood facilities...

Hopefully Jack is still on the job...Otherwise the eastern U.S. could be in store for some "glowing" snow and/or rain storms....
