Bush and McCain were right - military tribunals are the way to go
Looks like the GOP was right and the community organizer was wrong. And it only took the guy 2 years to figure it out!
"President Barack Obama said Monday that the United States will resume using military commissions to prosecute alleged terrorists held at the Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, detention facility.
