Despite the fact that Ben Nelson D-NE and Ron Wyden D-OR reported the fact that they saw no evidence of abuse during their tour of Guantanamo Bay Cuba, I'm willing to bet that Amnesty International will not post a public apology to the United States for besmirching the reputation of our men and women in uniform by calling it a 'gulag'.
The MSM will hide this in the back pages of their papers/magazines as a non-story, back with their corrections and obituaries.
But, facts are facts, even Democrats are now coming out and saying that to close Gitmo would actually make the US less safe and increase the probability that abuse happen, because these prisoners would be split amongst several, more difficult to monitor, locations. With Gitmo, only one location needs to be inspected.
But will you hear Howard Dean say that? Doubtful. He sees that there's political hay to be made with the 'gulag' accusation and he's running with it. And who can blame him, I mean we're only disrespecting our men and women in uniform. It's not like they vote Democrat.
Which should tell you something about the people who love this country enough to lay their lives down to protect it.
