a first step toward ending our shame

Gitmo war crimes court halted at Obama request

The more we learn about the so-called "evidence" used to justify the detentions, the more we learn about the evidentiary rules used to "try" the detainees, the more Gitmo cries for closure.

No, I don't know the "right" way to disposition the remaining detainees, but keeping 'em locked up in legal limbo is wrong.

The sooner President Obama closes this disgrace, the better.
