Obama To Try To Close Guantanamo Bay Again

President Barack Obama has chosen a classic inside-Washington lawyer to make another try at closing down the military prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. It's where the U.S. has held foreign terror suspects ever since the 9-11 terrorist attacks. Clifford Sloan will become the State Department's special envoy. That office was closed down in January. Sloan will try to negotiate between the administration and Congress on a way to shut down the prison. Sloan is a partner at Skadden Arps, where he is listed as specializing in intellectual property, media and entertainment. He's worked in all three branches of government.

So then will Obama set all of the terrorist free and back to their Countries. If that happens, he should be locked up.

What about the countries who have offered to house the prisoners on a sub contracting basis? We would be allowed to send someone,or a group to check on them anytime at all.

Simple solution. A bullet to the head of each of the terrorist scum.

Wait, wasn't there a recent story about a multi million contract awarded to upgrade the facility? What is really going on here? The work was supposed to go on for more than half a year.
