“Obama just sent five Gitmo prisoners back to Afghanistan in exchange for an American soldier who may have deserted. Drudge fills the page with stories. The entire focus is on the American. What about the five released prisoners, who never received a trial? Obama is at long last pulling troops out of Afghanistan, yet he is still holding prisoners captured in Afghanistan, who were never given a trial. If the war is over, shouldn’t we close Guantánamo? ‘Never,’ Republicans say. ‘This is a great way to spend our tax dollars. This is America’s version of Castro’s concentration camps in Cuba. We deserve one, too!'”
