Those who seek to shut down Gitmo are premature . . .
Instead, why not reserve it as a prison for those who (in the future) are convicted for war crimes? Sort of like exiling Napoleon to Elba. Hell, we could even transfer Saddam to Gitmo, and he could be cellmate to Georgie. I'd love to see the traitor and chief as Saddam's bitch.

1. The whole point of Gitmo is to supercede the Constitution.
You can't call yourself an American and lover of liberty and keep that thing open. Raze it too the ground.

to go stand before the international court.
i want them to serve their life sentences in an international jail rather than here where they can be pardoned by some partisan freak.
