Gitmo Terrorists for Obama
Posted by Dave Blount at January 31, 2008 9:38 AM
With this, I could easily rest my case against Barack Hussein Obama:
More than 80 attorneys who have been offering free-of-charge legal services to Guantánamo detainees issued a statement Monday supporting Democrat Barack Obama's presidential bid.
Now we know who Lynne Stewart must be rooting for.
Like Lettuce McCain, Obambi calls for closing Club Gitmo in an effort to appease our enemies. But that's not enough: he also wants to grant the terrorists held there legal privileges they do not deserve, as if they were not foreign unlawful combatants but American citizens held for conventional crimes.
Meanwhile:
Republican candidate Mitt Romney, in contrast, has advocated doubling the detention center — which today holds about 275 foreign men as enemy combatants and cell space for more than 1,500.
The Pentagon regards Gitmo as essential for incarcerating "high-value detainees" — guys like Khalid Sheikh Mohammad, who earned Rosie O'Donnell's undying affection by planning the 9/11 atrocities. Apparently facile posturing is more important than national security to Obambi, McLame and other irresponsible liberals.
