Please forgvie my ignorance, but why DIDN’T the current administration do SOMETHING with these guys before this could occur, especially when they petty much knew some wacko judge would let them go back to the terrorist lives?

In my ignorant opinion, this is the crux of the problem with “detainees”. Why isn’t their fate decided more quickly? I think the military is trying to give them a fair shake, but the public seems to just want them these “detainees” to go away. Many would have less of a problem if these detainees were killed instead of captured.

If you'll recall, the military tribunal's set up by the Bush administration to try these scumbags was shot down by the United States Supreme Court, which gave foreign terrorists rights of habeas corpus..

Not everything is Bush's fault. Egad, get a GRIP.
