Obama brings the Gitmolympics home

President Obama’s hometown cronies lost their bid to bring the 2016
Olympic Games to the Windy City. But this week, they got a consolation
prize: the Gitmolympics. On Tuesday, the White House went public with
its official plans to purchase the Thomson Correctional Facility from
financially-strapped Illinois to house Guantanamo Bay detainees. The
War on Terror meets the Chicago Way.
Political boosters of the Illinois budget bailout masquerading as a
national security program can’t wait to roll out the jihadi welcome
mat. Unions representing federal prison workers also cheered the move.
Leading the lobbying delegation for the new Gitmo-in-the-heartland
located a few hours west of Chicago: Democrat Senate Majority Whip
Dick Durbin, last seen on the international stage in 2005 likening
American interrogators and military staff at Guantanamo Bay to Nazis,
Soviet gulag operators and genocidal maniac Pol Pot.
And co-chairing the bid to bring suspected jihadis to American soil:
Beleaguered Illinois Democrat Gov. Pat Quinn, who is salivating at the
prospect of an estimated $1 billion injection into the local economy
over four years. (Never mind that the jobs predictions from the
Council of Economic Advisers use the same fuzzy math methods that gave
us bogus porkulus numbers.)
Sensibly, the people of Illinois who will have to live with this raw
deal aren’t waving their pom-poms. A Rasmussen poll shows that 51
percent of voters in the state oppose the transfer of suspected
terrorists from the Cuban detention facility to their backyard –
including 70 percent of Republicans, 37 percent of Democrats, and 57
percent of independents.
Left-wing advocates of closing Gitmo accuse these Americans of
“NIMBYism” and groundless fear. But can you blame anyone who watched
the Crashergate debacle at the White House or the Scare Force One
debacle in New York City for choking on disbelief when Team Obama
promises airtight safety, security, and competence?
Moreover, Illinois is already suffering its own severe prison
overcrowding crisis – which Gov. Quinn has alleviated by secretly
releasing more than 850 inmates, including violent offenders, since
September, according to the Associated Press.
GOP gubernatorial candidate Dan Proft points out that “[t]he state’s
28 current prisons are 32 percent over capacity. Why not alleviate the
overcrowding and bring the Thomson prison online” for existing
criminals instead of importing them from abroad? Another Republican
candidate Kirk Dillard blasted Gov. Quinn’s fiscal desperation: “I
think Al-Qaeda needs to stay in Cuba. It shows how pathetic the state
of Illinois’ finances are where we have to stand with our hat in hand
and have the federal government give us money to open a penitentiary
that the Democrats have let sit vacant for years.”
Obama officials stress that the prison would house Gitmo detainees
separately from federal inmates, and that the two would be “managed
separately” with “no opportunity to interact” between them. Which
entirely misses the point that Gitmo detainees’ lawyers and
translators have been primary security concerns – not just other
inmates:
*Last month, jihadist-enabling lawyer Lynne Stewart was finally
ordered to jail after her conviction in 2005 for aiding and abetting
imprisoned blind Egyptian Sheik Omar Abdel Rahman by smuggling coded
messages of violence to terrorist followers abroad — in violation of
an explicit pledge to abide by her client’s court-ordered isolation.
*Earlier this summer, the Justice Department launched an inquiry into
photographs of undercover CIA officials and other intelligence
personnel taken by ACLU-sponsored researchers assisting the defense
team of Guatanamo Bay detainees. The pictures of covert American CIA
officers – “in some cases surreptitiously taken outside their homes,”
according to the Washington Post – were shown to jihadi suspects tied
to the 9/11 attacks in order to identify the interrogators.
*As investigative journalist Paul Sperry reported recently, a number
of Arabic and Pashtu interpreters who served at Gitmo are “under
active investigation for omitting valuable intelligence from their
translations of detainee interrogations, among other security
breaches.”
The corruptocrat Attorney General Eric Holder is, of course, in no
position to raise any principles objections to the Gitmo-in-the-
Heartland plans. Remember: He served as senior partner with Covington
& Burling — the prestigious Washington, D.C. law firm, which
represents 17 Yemenis currently held at Gitmo – and top attorneys at
his Justice Department have had to recuse themselves numerous times
over their conflicts of interest in Gitmo-related cases. Holder has
failed to provide a full recusal list of all the Gitmo detainee cases
from which current Justice Department political appointees have had to
recuse themselves.
Meanwhile, Team Obama is now championing the very same indefinite
detention powers for detainees deemed untriable that it condemned the
Bush administration for exercising – and for which it targeted Gitmo
for closure in the first place. Give the White House a gold medal for
costly incoherence and reckless redundance.

Thanks for posting the article. It provides yet another example as to
why Obama is many leagues stupider than any former president.
The man/moron is a perpetual danger to US security.
