When we do close it, which I believe will be when Dubya exits (unless another Republican nutbag gets in), so much will come out. America rivals many countries on Amnesty International when it comes to torture, and further exposure on Guantanomo will prove it. Americans don't like to see themselves as such--oh well. Most of the inmates there are either innocent or held without accusation--reminds me of some other countries we tend to criticize.Enemy of the Republichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17342253341470198835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12709723.post-86038375780900500892008-01-13T17:13:00.000-05:002008-01-13T17:13:00.000-05:00It's shameful that Guantanomo is still in use afte...It's shameful that Guantanomo is still in use after six whole years.

Nice to make your acquantance.<BR/><BR/>I to am a lunger as you call it,I call it, well I wont tell a minister of the cloth what I think about 12 hours a day on O2.But we battle on regardless. You may wish to look up a couple of my past blogs,"Should Campaigning Become An Obsession" or "If I Can, Anybody Can. or "Frustrating Being Frustrated". If you are recently diagnosed they might help.<BR/><BR/>With regard to Guantanamo, it should never have been opened in the first place. Close it by all means but send the inmates back to the country where they were captured. Not to a country of choice to potentialy go under cover subversives again.<BR/><BR/>Best regards<BR/><BR/>Keith.Easybreathingfellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03607541835218420293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12709723.post-50944061899698520862008-01-11T16:26:00.000-05:002008-01-11T16:26:00.000-05:00Closing it would be good.

Yes, close it! One of our citizens, David Hicks, was held there until last year without trial. He is back in Australia now and, regardless of what he is supposed to have done, is a relatively free man. I say relatively, because he has restrictions imposed upon his freedom.<BR/><BR/>But, of course, there are the other poor souls still detained in Guantanamo. Get them to trial and close the place. It's a blot on the USA's landscape.Puss-in-Bootshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02313418336654760327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12709723.post-87277509205155319132008-01-11T04:40:00.000-05:002008-01-11T04:40:00.000-05:00This is astonishing...hell...and I admire the US :...This is astonishing...hell...and I admire the US :(...<BR/><BR/>Sad to hear about your lung problemsSzarek(Will)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15251409921481102272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12709723.post-4101386527070446932008-01-11T03:31:00.000-05:002008-01-11T03:31:00.000-05:00wow... that is shocking! hope something happens so...wow... that is shocking! hope something happens soon, stuff like that should not happen in this day and age, simply not acceptable...<BR/><BR/>have a good weekend!Sweetshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05362438172459556642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12709723.post-35348321624550786222008-01-11T03:26:00.000-05:002008-01-11T03:26:00.000-05:00Thanks for the heads-up about Guantanamo, I need t...Thanks for the heads-up about Guantanamo, I need to inform myself better about this.
