Obama and Gates asked to suspend the Gitmo trials. Ed Morrissey is irreverent:
The delay would only be meaningful if Obama intended to free all of the Gitmo prisoners, something that the ACLU has urged. Somehow, I don’t think Barack Obama would be that foolish. It would be tough to win re-election as the man who set Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and the other 9/11 actors free simply to win favor from Europe’s elite.
Expect a lot more whining where that came from as Obama tries to re-establish the rule of law.
