#3 At issue in Monday's arguments is whether a federal judge has the authority to order the release of prisoners at Guantanamo who were unlawfully detained by the U.S. and cannot be sent back to their homeland.

There's the problem, right there. There is no determination that they were "unlawfully" detained. They were armed, on a battlefield, and not fighting for "our" side. Some jacka$$ Democratic, power-hungry (but I repeat myself) judge has "decided" they're being unlawfully detained, because they can't be shipped back to China, and there isn't any other country (including the US) that wants them. Maybe we should just slip them under the fence into Cuba when nobody's looking, and claim we don't have any idea what happened to them. Castro would probably welcome them.

#4 Tiome off for good behavior. Happens all the time with dope dealers, murders, rapists and other perverts. Who's to say that terrorists should be treated equally?
