President Obama campaigned on the so-called "human-rights violations" and "diplomatic scar" of Guantanamo Bay. Recently, he's decided that a few detainees perhaps should be left in Guantanamo after all. As the sophmoric novice begins to figure out WHY Bush put detainees in Guantanamo (so that it would be out of the reaching of parasitic American lawyers), he has also had a "oh crap moment" as he's discovered the vast complication of putting these terrorists on domestic soil. As Obama has signed an executive order closing Guantanamo, he has idiotically not created a plan to put its inhabitants anywhere. While many of us who believe his assault on America is intentional think that he would rather have them be released back to the jihad, we can still hope that he is simply closing Guantanamo to appease the world and not surrender to it. And if it's the latter, where are the terrorists going to go?
The City of Hardin, a town of 3,400 people near the Crow Indian Reservation (an Indian town, in other words), built the $27 million, 460-bed jail two years ago and has been looking for tenants ever since. A change in Montana law and short sightedness has created a problem in that the prison is incapable of accepting contracts to allow inmates. Its construction loans are in default.
The city council has voted unanimously to allow Gitmo detainees to be placed in the facility. Rumors around Washington are that Obama is considering it.
NOTE: THIS REDNECK IS HALF PARANOID, WONDERING IF THIS WHOLE THING WASN'T PLANNED BY THE "POWERS THAT BE" IN 2007 - HOW ELSE CAN YOU EXPLAIN SOMEONE MAKING A EMPTY, UNUSED PRISON?
Thankfully, our Montana politicians don't seem to be playing ball. Even Democrat Senator Max Baucus has said "not on my watch." Democrat Jon Tester and Republican congressman Denny Rehberg have also called it a bad idea. Our lovely Democrat Governor, however, is eerily silent.
One Hardin city council representative said "Somebody has to stand up and put (the Guantanamo prisoners) in their backyards. It's our patriotic duty," said Greg Smith, director of the city's Two Rivers Authority."
Excuse me? It's our patriotic duty to house terrorists? I believe it's our patriotic duty to kill terrorists. And I'll be the first to admit - no offense to my friends in Hardin - Hardin is a complete and total crap hole (like most Indian towns). So I'm not really worried about Hardin. I am worried about terrorists being in close proximity to my family.
These detainees should be put on a WWII era aircraft carrier and floated around the world in secret. If not, feel free to release them all in Montana. With their turbin. At a cowboy bar. That should do it.
