Hi ho, hi ho. Off to Michelle's house we go
In one fell swoop, the Supreme Court's Boumediene decision undercut the whole reason for detaining terrorism detainees at Guantánamo Bay. This is because a majority of the Supremes gave the raspberry to the Bush administration's claim that it didn't have to follow habeas corpus laws in trying the detainees because Cuba technically retains sovereignty over the land.
So what to do with the 260 remaining detainees, many of whom are most definitely dangerous dudes, while others are petty criminals or innocents who got swept up after 9/11?
The White House, ever willing to scare the crap out of us on false pretenses, kicked off the Independence Day weekend by claiming that the detainees could end up on Main Street.
"I am sure that none of us want Khalid Skeikh Mohammed walking around our neighborhoods," harrumphed White House press secretary Dana Perino, although federal appeals court have said they would not allow detainees to be arbitrarily freed.
How's this for an idea?
When Gitmo does close, let's invite the detainees over to Michelle Malkin's house.
I'm sure this slavish supporter of the Bush torture regime could keep 'em busy doing odd jobs when she wasn't carpooling them to and from court, including babysitting her kids. Think of all the exotic foreign languages that they could learn!

Stupid question: since none of them are United States citizens, why would any of them end up walking our streets?
You're not spozed to be asking questions. You're spozed to be scared. Get with the program!
Actually dude your the one trumpeting their cause.
Why not let them stay with you? Are you not the bleeding heart liberal that is so concerned for their health and well being? Your the one who is advocating for their release not the conservatives and certainly not Michelle Malakin.
Those opposed to their release are content with them being released back in their home countries.
