    Guantanamo

    Maybe Guantanamo should stay open for training purposes? It should be used as a place where the establishment figures can be sent to have torture administered on them. I am sure that it will always be full. After all, at first we will have to send the entire Congress. That makes 535 people. There will be a waiting list.

    And McCain complaining about Obama? why, we should send Obama to Guantanamo for a couple of months to experience what McCain experienced in Vietnam. This will qualify him to be president.

    Anyway, it should be kept open, just as concentration camps are open as museums, so that future generations can learn what our government has accomplished, and what excessive power can lead to.
