The theory of which Obey speaks is that someone on the O-Team actually has a plan for where to put the 241 terrorists currently detained at the facility. Thus far, no other nation has volunteered to unburden Mr. Obama of the problem he created for himself during last year’s presidential campaign and by issuing his increasingly dubious executive order. Until now, there was talk of moving some to high-security prisons in the United States, sending others to their “home countries” and simply releasing the detainees who no longer are considered to be “terrorists.”

During debate this week in the House Appropriations Committee, Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., suggested that we give the coldblooded terrorists housed at Gitmo “the same due process we give our own troops.” No one in the so-called mainstream media bothered to call Schiff to account for equating Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, Ramzi Binalshibh and Abu Zubaydah, 9/11 conspirators all, with the men and women of our armed forces.
