Merry Christmas to unlawful detainees and Katrina's child victims

with bushco, there is simply no end to the ability to spread warmth and the goodwill of humankind over this holiday season... i wonder if they're having holiday parties at gitmo...?
U.S. District Judge James Robertson criticized the government's detention of Abu Bakker Qassim and Adel Abdu Hakim, who have been jailed at Guantanamo for four years; they have been cleared for release because the government has determined they are not enemy combatants and are not a threat to the United States. But Robertson said his court has "no relief to offer" because the government has not found a country to accept the men and because he does not have authority to let them enter the United States.

and pity the kids, orphaned after the katrina disaster, and now abandoned by their "compassionate conservative" government...
