House Democrats want to force the Pentagon to shut down the Guantanamo Bay detention camp and bring the terror suspects housed there to the U.S. The Politico newspaper reports the effort is being led by Virginia Democrat Jim Moran, who wants the 385 suspects in custody to be either released, tried or moved to military brigs along the East Coast.
Moran wants to cut funding for the facility by the end of the summer of 2008. A senior administration official responded by saying: “Where do Democrats believe we should keep Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the mastermind of the 9/11 plot? Which American city will they choose to place America’s most wanted terrorists?”
And isn’t that the whole point?
I’ve got an idea to demonstrate it. Let’s ship them to whatever city the DNC will be held in. Save the terrorists on travel expense.
