Turbin thinks it’s a dream come true because he spends all his time in DC.
One has to wonder when Little Dickie Turban is going to advocate support for a growth industry of housing and trying terrorists. After all, the most important thing is jobs for unemployed Illinoisans.
Of all the arguments against moving the TERRORISTS to Illinois, the economic reason is the one we should be touting. I wish just one Republican would do his homework and calculate the total cost of renovating and staffing the Illinois facility. 3000 jobs! Just what we need - thousands of new federal employees! If you add up the salaries and the benefits and retirement costs, we are into muti billions. We will own one very expensive, first class, muslim-friendly prison! Hmmm! Don't we have one of those already? Oh yeah! Gitmo!
Go public with this argument: We have already spent billions to upgrade Gitmo to a muslim-friendly prison. We currently use military personnel to staff it. It is in a neutral location. Now, we are supposed to purchase the prison at a price determined by the state of Illinois (Chicago prices), retrofit it for muslim occupants and staff it with thousands of new federal employees. If we don't use federal employees, it will be SEIU workers!
At the end of the day we own a very special and very expensive prison. Just so Obama can say he "closed Gitmo"!
The only bad thing about getting rid of Harry Reid in Nevada is that this damn lunatic scumbag would become the new rat leader.
Durbin should be forced to bunk with the gitmo terrorists for a few days.
