Run Fer Yer Lives!

This is getting stupid:

The White House said Thursday that dangerous detainees at Guantanamo Bay could end up walking Main Street U.S.A. as a result of last month’s Supreme Court ruling about detainees’ legal rights. Federal appeals courts, however, have indicated they have no intention of letting that happen.

The high court ruling, which gave all detainees the right to petition federal judges for immediate release, has intensified discussions within the Bush administration about what to do with the roughly 270 detainees held at the U.S. naval base at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

“I’m sure that none of us want Khalid Sheikh Mohammed walking around our neighborhoods.”

Just plant a bottle of drinking water on him and he’ll never be able to enter the country — just like everbody else.

I’ve always made a sort of satirical joke that they were screaming “the terrorists are coming to kill us all in our beds!” But now they are literally saying that. Good thing nobody cares what they think anymore.
