Americans by a 2-1 margin oppose closing Gitmo. This is a blow to the Progressive-Islamist alliance and Obama.
Poll: Most oppose closing Gitmo
WASHINGTON — Americans are overwhelmingly opposed to closing the detention center for suspected terrorists at Guantanamo Bay and moving some of the detainees to prisons on U.S. soil, a USA TODAY/Gallup Poll finds.By more than 2-1, those surveyed say Guantanamo shouldn’t be closed. By more than 3-1, they oppose moving some of the accused terrorists housed there to prisons in their own states.
The findings underscore the difficult task President Obama faces in convincing those at home that he should follow through on his campaign promise to close the prison in Cuba, especially in the absence of a plan of where the prisoners would go.
This should not even have been an issue. Hopefully Americans will wake up on other issues as well. This is a good start.
