This is what the nominee to head the department of defense had to say about Guantanamo:
“It got mucked up very early when left-wing lawyers and other
protections came in,” he said. “It could have been a great place to
expeditiously interrogate, try and, you know, execute, because we are in a
war.”
Note: the other "protections" were from the Courts. He won't have to worry about that part for a long time, if ever.
