Barry doesn't mind giving hundreds of millions in taxpayer dollars to muslims who hate us but he's opposed to spending that same amount on imprisoning them.

I can’t believe this figure for even a second...

Guantanamo is not a fancy facility - it’s quite simple. I don’t believe we pay a lease. It is staffed by U.S. military who would be paid if they were sitting at a CONUS base, sitting in the sandbox, or sitting at Guantanamo. It is secured by US Military - same thing.

I can’t believe the military tribunal system would cost that much either.

Smells like politically motivated BS to me. Seems like I remember the Bush administration saying Guantanamo was cheaper that a Federal prison many years ago. I might not remember that correctly, but I have always believed Guantanamo was a cheaper alternative. The defense attorneys would bleed the taxpayers out on these enemy combatants if they were incarcerated on our soil.

As i understand it there are a lot of prisoners on hunger strikes. At $900,000 per terrorist I say allow the hunger strike to follow it’s natural course.

[Vendome]

I couldn’t care less.

I do not want them on American soil for any reason.

How is it even remotely possible that the USA has a military facility in a communist country that is and has been openly hostile to us?

Let that sink in.

[Slump Tester]

Execute them all and shut it down!

[Rembrandt]

Make liberals happy. Release all these terrorists. 50 miles off shore.

That’s about the same as the per-student cost of the unionized Chicago Public Schools.

Wghiel Senior Citizens and disabled peopel and veterans have to get by on as little as $10,000 a year-

Yep- we’ve got our priorities straight-

[JimRed]

I could solve that problem with a buck or two worth of ammunition per prisoner...
