The crime rate in Chicago has dropped so much that the state has no use for the facility that is located within 150 miles of town? Good news, good news! It would appear that all of those six figure teachers are performing at an amazing level creating productive members of society who abstain from crime. /s

Plans to buy? It's already bought.
"the Obama administration delivered a $165 million payment Tuesday to a federal court in Rockford, Ill., to buy the Thomson Correctional Center from the state of Illinois, bypassing a Republican congressman from Virginia who has put the brakes on
"
Unknown at this time if GITMO prisoners will be housed there.

Right across the river from Davenport, Iowa.
So if these Muzzies can swim, better stock up on weapons.

Gitmo inmates? More likely he’s planning to put us American citizens in there.

It's about 50 mi NE. It's on a really wide spot in the Mississippi called Spring Lake I didn't know was like that. I guess the nearest IA town is Clinton which is a little south.
There are some worries about the situation, yes. You wouldn't want to attempt to swim the Mississippi there, maybe other places, but there are other ways to get across.

Watch how King Obama will spin this at the debates. He will say in his next term will will close Gitmo as promised. They he will blame the hold up on the Republicans that at first denied him the funds to purchase the prison and had to find other way. We are dealing with the most corrupt spin master this Country has ever seen.

If Romney had any b@lls, he’s say

0bama just wants terrorists to make their target America rather than overseas.

More than likely it is an underhanded, if not entirely illegal, attempt to bail out Illinois. Our idiot voters have put state governments in office where The Disaster learned his How to Bankrupt a Government techniques.
This move throws another 165 million into the yawning maw of Illinois finances. Tis a pittance compared to the deficits but greatly appreciated.

If you had a plan to harm this country, what better way than transport it's enemies here under cover of law. Militarize all the mosques, and have them prepare. Not a shot fired...
Yet.

Bingo. Gov. Quinn’s solution is to have the FEDS bail us out. IL Democrats don’t know how to say, “No”. We have a spending problem that cannot be solved by Democrats.
