Attorney General Holder - Gitmo Hotels Might Be Housed in Hotels


Eric Holder - you know, our beloved Attorney General who called America a nation of moral "cowards" - says we may put Gitmo detainees up in Hotels. Maid service, continental breakfasts (or will they be staying at the Embassy Suites who serve a full breakfast), in-room dining, a bar downstairs (the perfect place to hatch new plots against America ...

Oh yes, and by the way, he is also, once again, asking our allies to take their "share of the detainees." The idiot. They've already told us "no" several times over. Fucking idiot.

Fuck Eric Holder.


BERLIN (AP) — The United States and its allies must make sacrifices to close the Guantanamo Bay detention center, U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder said Wednesday in a high-profile appeal for Europe's help.

Holder spoke to the American Academy in Berlin, not long after telling reporters that the United States had approved the release of about 30 Guantanamo detainees.

"We must all make sacrifices and we must all be willing to make unpopular choices," said Holder.

"The United States is ready to do its part, and we hope that Europe will join us — not out of a sense of responsibility, but from a commitment to work with one of its oldest allies to confront one of the world's most pressing challenges," he said.

There are currently 241 inmates at the facility at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and Holder spent the past several days privately asking European leaders in London, Prague and Berlin for help relocating detainees the United States wants to set free.

Holder spoke before a select group of policy experts, academics and journalists in a crowded room of about 100.

In answer to a question about Bush administration officials' decisions to authorize tough interrogation techniques, Holder said he believed that many of them would, privately, admit to having made some mistakes in the pressure and worry that followed the Sept. 11 attacks.

"I don't suspect that would be true of Vice President Dick Cheney," Holder added.

At another point, a questioner earnestly asked of those Guantanamo detainees who are believed to be innocent could be put in a hotel somewhere.

"Hotels might be a possibility, it depends on where the hotel is," joked Holder.



And, so fucking funny he is too, huh? He should be a standup comedian. 

Maybe we can put them up in hotels next to your house, Mr. Holder.

See, I can be funny too.

Since Obama seems to want a relationship with the Castro brothers, why don't we just fling open the gates at Gitmo and say "run little jihadis, run! You're free!"?
