Obama Thumped… Senate Votes 90-6 to Keep Gitmo Open

Sanity prevails over Hopenchange.
The Senate today voted 90-6 to keep Gitmo open.
The AP reported:

In a major rebuke to President Barack Obama, the Senate voted overwhelmingly on Wednesday to block the transfer of Guantanamo detainees to the United States and denied the administration the millions it sought to close the prison.

The 90-6 Senate vote — paired with similar House action last week — was a clear sign to Obama that he faces a tough fight getting the Democratic-controlled Congress to agree with his plans to shut down the detention center and move the 240 detainees.

Sorry, Uighur terrorists.
Back to your cells.
