Bush Wants to Close Guantanamo

President Bush, if you are a regular reader of my blog, I ask you: "What in the world are you thinking?" Liberals will never like you, nor will many of our corrupt European "allies" - if you lose conservatives too, you've lost everything.

In an interview last week with a German tv station, Bush said:


"Of course Guantanamo is a delicate issue for people. I would like to close the camp and put the prisoners on trial," Bush said in comments to German television to be broadcast on Sunday night. The interview was recorded last week.

Are you kidding me???!!? Of course, Bush likely means "military tribunal" rather than a civilian trial, but still...he sounds like these are simply thug criminals rather than warriors who want to cut his head off and blow up the U.S.

If Bush doesn't reverse course here and start sticking to his principles, I believe he will see his poll numbers below 20 soon.
