Why am I not surprised?
More than 80 volunteer lawyers for Guantanamo Bay detainees today endorsed Illinois Senator Barack Obama’s presidential bid.
The attorneys said in a joint statement that they believed Obama was the best choice to roll back the Bush-Cheney administration’s detention policies in the war on terrorism and thereby to “restore the rule of law, demonstrate our commitment to human rights, and repair our reputation in the world community.” The attorneys are representing the detainees in habeas corpus lawsuits, which are efforts to get individual hearings before federal judges in order to challenge the basis for their indefinite imprisonment without trial.
Islamic jihadi’s around the world got a good laugh at that one. The Club G’itmo vacationers are looking forward to being treated just like an American citizen, followed by a good workout with a sharp and large knife.
I wonder if B. Hussein would be willing to host one of them while they are out on bail?
If only liberals/progressives/surrender monkeys worried as much about protecting Americans.
