Secret Government Hideouts

In today's Columbus Dispatch is an article written by Steven Thomma of the Associated Press. First, this torques me off because I can never find an e-mail address for these AP trouble makers, which means it's impossible to spout off. The headlines read: Obama's Pen Makes Statement To The World. The gist of the article is, we're closing Guantanamo, torture is outlawed and our secret overseas prisons are shutdown. I'm most concerned about the latter. Say, for example, we capture Osama bin Laden. Where do we take him for questioning; the Mall maybe? Let's get real. Don't you think we should have this clown in secrecy for a goodly amount of time before word gets out to Maureen Dowd? Wouldn't common sense say someone smarter than your average person try to get sensitive info out of the guy. Hoorah! How about Jethro Gibbs aka Mark Harmon from my favorite show, NCIS? Seriously, there were, under Mr. Bush, eight or nine secret locations to take captured terrorists in order to find out info about persons, places, and things pertinent to our future safety. Those in the know, and this is from general sourcing, say the amount info gained from waterboarding three individuals saved the US from attacks worse than the WTC bombings. After this grilling I want to water board the hell out of them. I want to water board them while they're looking at pictures of the World Trade Center.
Now, as to the newspaper headlines; what statement does this make to the world? It says the ACLU has a huge impact on our administration and that the Obama-ites going to "meow" their way through the entire process.
