Enemy combatants coming to a neighborhood near you

Attorney General Eric Holder says to expect some suspected terrorists in your friendly neighborhood:
Attorney General Eric Holder said some detainees being held at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, may end up being released in the U.S. as the Obama administration works with foreign allies to resettle some of the prisoners.

Mr. Holder, in a briefing with reporters, said administration officials are still reviewing individual cases of the approximately 250 detainees to determine which will be put on trial and which may be released to comply with plans to close the detention facility by next year.
Get that warm and fuzzy feeling about your government yet? I bet somewhere in Congress there's a Democrat thinking up a bill to provide government-subsidized foreclosed housing to these detainees, and wrap that in a fancy economic stimulus package.

Actually, I have no problem with this if these Gitmo detainees are released into the neighborhoods of Pelosi, Reid, etc.

Your comment about government foreclosed homes for these released Guantanamo inmates is inaccurate. Former Pres. Carter has already pledged new Habitat for Humanity houses for the Gitmo hosers. Just so you know.

Only kidding with you. Have to kid because the truth of this proposal worries me. I would expect these kinds of ideas from crackpot liberal arts professors, but to hear a US Attorney General propose this makes me want to take a one-way trip somewhere far far away.
