You said "Even if they are ultimately freed, they need someplace to go and where they were, or their country of origin, may not be willing to have them returned". This tells us you are as confused as BO. You set a timeline when you don't know what to do. And you say "orderly manner" when you have no clue what that manner is? Bill Laden must be feeling very relaxed. He knows his jihadi soldiers would be better off in US prisons than the Hindukush Mountains. Iced Tea, gentle questioning etc. That will be like nice vacation. Do you know "fear" is the best deterrent? to keep elements you don’t know what to do with.

The people who are imprisoned must be legally adjudicated one way or the other. Even if they are ultimately freed, they need someplace to go and where they were, or their country of origin, may not be willing to have them returned. The Bush administration created a real mess with this one, and it's going to take time to straighten it out, so a year is not unreasonable. It's not that the decisionwhether or not to close Gitmo has been postponed for a year, but that it will be done in an orderly manner. they just can’t kick everyone out and slam the doors.

One, just one of those, and the Dems are toast. What I'm sure he doesn't get or is unwilling to pursue is the notion of the best defense is a good offense. There's no way to defend the vast openness of the US economy in a basketball half-court set on US soil. What Bush recognized is that we can be very effective, however, with a full court press. Bush did an outstanding job of ensuring that terrorists had to focus on just protecting the ball against a turnover rather than hoping they miss their jump shots. to leave himself and the Democrats wide open to political oblivion by abandoning US defenses against another 9/11.

So who knows how many terrorists, including big fish being secretly held, we are actually talking about here. I have a bad feeling about this.

In any case, we have approximately 250 terrorists in Guantanamo alone that we will have to figure out what to do with. Recent headlines show that in many cases they return to the battlefield even after attempts at rehabilitation. I wonder if that is what it actually means.
