"lack of planning for how to shutter the prison and how to handle the detainees."

There's that other party we all know.

I agree that debate will be refreshing but it should have happened prior to deciding to shut the place down. Debate, then decide. Not the other way around.

I agree that we can handle them in the U.S. if needed and it is sad to see Rep using it as a pol football. Bottom line is....if we can handle the Bundy's, Dahmers, Manson's, Green rivers of our own country, we can handle a few jihadists. About time we find some pols in this country that stand up for what is right and quit trying to score pol points with every little issue. Rep and dems.
