Red Flag Alert: Democrats Slip Bringing Terrorists to American Prisons into Defense Bill
Topics: Political News and commentaries, War on TerrorA surprising move by the slippery Dems, but clearly not exactly unexpected.
Senator Mark Kirk (R, IL) is raising a red flag over the defense bill because the Democrat led House of Representatives and Democrat led Senate has slipped in a provision that would allow accused terrorists to be housed in prisons in the interior of the United States.Read more ...In an apparent effort to get around the President's decision to ignore his own deadline to shut down the Guantanamo Bay, Cuba terrorist detention facility, the Democrat leadership included the provision in order to give terrorists and detainees in Guantanamo a place to go so that the Cuba-based facility can eventually -- and sooner rather than later -- be shut down.
Apparently the culprit responsible for burying the provision in the House defense bill is "lame duck" Speaker Pelosi.
