Metrosexual Gitmo detainees love the kitchen
San Francisco Chronicle ^ | 2/16/11 | Debra J. Saunders

Posted on 02/16/2011 8:17:26 AM PST by SmithL

Today's AP story on the Gate on the Berkeley vote not to pass a resolution to resettle Gitmo detainees reports:

The resolution singled out two Guantanamo detainees who have been cleared of wrongdoing but don't want to return to their home countries because they fear persecution -- Ravil Mingazov, a Russian ballet dancer, and Djamel Ameziane, an Algerian chef.

That is just plain wrong. As I wrote Sunday, these detainees have not been cleared.

On another note, the Center for Constitutional Rights has put together profiles on Guantanamo detainees, including this one for possible Berkeley-transplant, Djamel Ameziane.

A new immigration scam. Hook up with the Taliban and get captured, it takes less time than a formal application.

I bet they'd all love Frankie aka Malcolm!

My newest pitch for a “Celebrity Death Match”:

1. National anthem to be attempted by Christina Whalegulera.

2. Steel cage preliminary death match: Chazz Sheen vs. Malcolm

3. Championship: Winner of above vs. LiLo in a Cocaine snort off. When you die, you win.

I love it!!!
