Anybody got an idea of where we can put the prisoners, mostly from Yemen, who are still at the Guantanamo prison that Obama signed an Executive Order to close? Colorado's Governor Bill Ritter wants to bring some of them here to Colorado's supermax prison in Florence. Congressman Doug Lamborn, whose district includes Florence, doesn't want them here, or anywhere else on American soil.
One prisoner who has already been freed, Said Ali al-Shihu, is back in Yemen, where he has been promoted as deputy=leader of al-Qaeda's Yemeni branch. He is suspected of involvement in a deadly bombing of the U.S. Embassy in Yemen in September.
By the way, in case you are keeping score, here is the number of Executive Orders filed by recent presidents in their first three days in office:
Ford 0
Carter 1
Reagan 0
Bush Sr. 0
Clinton 1
Bush Jr. 0
Obama 5

Obama is going to be a huge disaster for this country for years to come as was/is carter. I'm not looking forward to the next four years. I think he will track center and let the demos in congress track left because they are all socialists at heart.
