Never confuse Bush with the truth or anything even close
say anything... claim anything... you know that, as president of the united states, every word you say is being carefully scrutinized and quoted in media and news outlets around the world... so, it really doesn't matter whether or not you're telling the truth... whatever you say will go right on the permanent record so, de facto, it must be true...
yes, ok, a new facility is opening at guantanamo, but don't worry... george "SAID" he'd like to close the place, and we all know he wouldn't deliberately tell a lie... the presidents of SOME countries might display such perfidy, but not OUR president, not the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES...!

The controversy over the US-run detention centre at Guantanamo Bay is to erupt anew with confirmation by the Pentagon that a new, permanent prison will open in the Cuban enclave in the next few weeks.
[...]
[Bush claimed] earlier this summer that he would "like to close" Guantanamo. Just weeks after he made his comments in June, the Supreme Court ruled that the administration's system for trying prisoners using military tribunals breached United States and international law.
At the time, some campaigners predicted the decision marked the beginning of the end of Guantanamo Bay. Since then, however, the Bush administration has signalled its intention to introduce new legislation that would circumvent the court's ruling. The revelation that Camp 6 is poised to open is proof that it intends to keep using the prison.
