A great day for America
Scott Shane & William Glaberson of the NYT:
WASHINGTON — Saying that “our ideals give us the strength and moral high ground” to combat terrorism, President Obama signed executive orders Thursday effectively ending the Central Intelligence Agency’s secret interrogation program, directing the closing of the Guantánamo Bay detention camp within a year and setting up a sweeping, high-level review of the best way to hold and question terrorist suspects in the future.
Comments
I found that interesting when hit with a followup question about what happens to the detainees next President Obama had to ask his lawyer.
In the press briefing Gibbs had to dance around similar questions.
Idealism meets reality?
