Quote of the Day

"I am disappointed that policy makers and analysts continue to talk about Fort Leavenworth as a place to house detainees without visiting the facility. In person visits will confirm why the Disciplinary Barracks do not meet the security requirements necessary to perform this mission, even if Guantanamo Bay were to close."

From Senator Sam Brownback (R-KS) after the Center for American Progress released a report advocating closing Gitmo and moving prisoners to Ft Leavenworth. Interestingly, when John McCain suggested closing Gitmo and moving prisoners to Ft. Leavenworth, you didn't hear a peep from Sen. Brownback. hmmm
