Yes we can!
Dick Durbin should be the first inmate.
We have a perfect example of Obamao security.
Gate crashers at a State Dinner at the White House.
How very reassuring.
Good! Maybe this will sober the state up a bit. Some of BO’s biggest fans are from Illinois.
How's that hope and change in IL?
“”White House suggests that as many as 3,000 jobs could be created — some going to local hires, others to people who would move to the area.””
What better place for terrorists than in the land of corruption? Think of the payoff to the unions for prison guard jobs. Guess they figure they’ll become as powerful as the prison guard union in CA where everything is just ducky!
0 needs to make it appear as tho’ he’s creating jobs even if he has to do favors for the terrorists and the unions - not much difference between the two.
Rev Wright will give him Obama’s seat at his church. After all, they all feel the same way about the USA.
the U.S. government will buy the largely unused $145 million Thomson Correctional Center, which was built in 2008.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
How many private businesses would build a $145 million dollar building and allow it to sit “unused”?
Also...Will the combatants be mixed with the general criminal population? If so, I see plenty of opportunity for Muslim proselytizing, and even more homegrown style terrorism from U.S. criminal converts to Islam.
Finally,...I bet the enemy combatants themselves would rather enjoy the safety and comfort of Guantanamo under the care a supervision of our highly professional military than in a U.S. based prison.
Ping!
Must have been a criminal void in IL after Obama and his gang went to DC.
This nearby Iowan is not amused.
Obama’s ACLU get rich quick plan.
Just release several hundred terrorists to create mayhem all over the world then spend 145 million and who know how much more on a prison near a US population center and then house terrorists in it.
Just does not get any better. Stimulus at its finest hour!
Isn’t the Sears tower, the largest building in the country in illinois, just a short distance from Thomson?
Just a thought.
ROFLMAO!!! They are so EFFING naive. It's not what the terrorist do to get out of prison; it's what they can do while IN it, e.g., recruiting for their cause, drawing other radical muzzies to the area, etc. I guess the good people of Thomson, IL will welcome the surge of new al-Qaida sympathizers to their midst.
Take them to Zero’s old neighborhood, and drop them off at Calypso Louie’s compound. I’m sure that they can find work with the Nation of Islam.
Illinois’s reward for being Obama’s home state. Enjoy!
Those unarmed crowded public schools and big shopping malls with fat rent-a-cops make terrific targets to take hundreds (thousands?) of innocents hostage and commit mass murder to get these prisoners freed.
Illinois better hire the Archangel Group, fast, to get some needed hostage training and triple their available SWAT police forces.
Think: the Moscow Theater and Beslan Massacres...
Back when my putz Carl Levin couldn't shut up about Gitmo i said something cynical, they were just pissed they couldn't control the jobs because they can't control a military facility, boy was I on the money, look at the pork here....
Win-Win for the ACLU attornies that will defend them, Obama supporters that get their payola.
Will these folks need to be flown to NY for trial?
Oh my a local airport needs to be upgraded to handle them and fly them, new smooth runways. Hmmm did that Contractor give to Durbin?
Not to mention the guards union but who will feed them? Who gets that contract? Isn't the SEIU big into food Unions?
I thought the terrorists came from Illinois.
