GOP Sens. Cotton, Perdue seek to block Gitmo closing by declassifying detainee terror records

Let's start with the most important thing: The terrorist prison at Guantanomo Bay was one of the most brilliant things George W. Bush ever did. Because it's at a naval base the U.S. controls, we have full autonomy in dealing with the terrorists we pick up on the battlefield and bring there. Because it's not on our soil, we don't have to grant the terrorists any constitutional rights. And because it's on the soil of an adversary instead of an ally, we don't have to worry about creating political or security concerns for a friend. It's perfect - if your priority is winning the war.
