Here's where I see the problem. Shouldn't you already have a plan in place ready to begin before you scrub current operations? Why is he closing Gitmo before even coming up with a solution to prosecute it's current residents? I know he promised this during his campaign, however, I feel he should already have a plan in place to compensate for Gitmo's closing. What will happen in a year when Gitmo is supposed to be closed and this task force hasn't quite finished it's suggestions? Once these suggestions are finished then they're going to need to go through the House and Senate for approval (and we all know those things take longer than a year).
Now if this new task force comes up with a great idea to house the now Gitmo prisoners and also new great ways of getting information from the enemy I'm all for it. However, I stand by the fact that you already have a plan ready to be implemented before you even consider stopping the current one. It just doesn't make sense to do it any other way, especially when you're talking about the future of our nations security. Just a thought. I hope his other official acts as president come with a little more thought involved.
