Bye bye Gitmo, bye bye

UPDATE: Never mind!

If the report from CBS news is to believed, this idea is on the table and enjoys growing support among White House insiders.
The Bush administration is nearing a decision to close the Guantanamo Bay detention facility and move the terror suspects there to military prisons elsewhere, The Associated Press has learned.

President Bush's national security and legal advisers are expected to discuss the move at the White House on Friday and, for the first time, it appears a consensus is developing, senior administration officials said Thursday.
I guess more folks are beginning to see the negatives outweighing the positive effect (if any) beyond Dickwahd's delight. True, Dickwahd and Gonzo still see Gitmo as the crown jewel of their achievements, but the Condi-Gates cabal is growing stronger. And while Dickwahds greatest fear will be realized
Cheney's office and the Justice Department have been dead set against the step, arguing that moving "unlawful" enemy combatant suspects to the U.S. would give them undeserved legal rights.
They will be scattered among other military prisons, so Dickwahd will surely be able to hide a few and still have his fun.
