I think I'll wait until a real news organization confirms and reports this.

because it could so easily happen after 2008.

I fear the GITMO stain will be around haunting us for several generations.

I just had a 'Friend' on Facebook 'Like' this story from 'Five on Fox'.

I did a quick Google search and this rumor comes from (drumroll) Glenn Beck.

Man are these people gullible and foolish.

It really is getting pretty pathetic.

What are these Obama-bashers going to do when Pres. Obama gets re-elected?

I think they're going to go completely freakin' nuts.

getting rounded up and thrown in no telling how many prisons and tortured would have a tendency to make one hate the country or person responsible wouldn't you think? Thats what gitmo is all about, making sure there is people hating us going into the future.

The alternative is to hold people indefinitely, even if they haven't done anything, just in case. Which would be unjust, not to mention stupid.
