He had the decency to apologize today.
The DEMs are using a very dangerous tactic. They are using Gitmo to criticize the president, but that implicitly criticizes the troops that are there. So they are being careful to say that it is not an indictment of the troops because they can't possibly be to blame. Instead they are blaming the administration and using phrases like "chain of command." It seems to me that they are trying to have it both ways, but I guaranty that our troops don't see it that way. The backlash from this might be huge.
