North Korea's prison camps are wrong. Now with the pictures of the camps and all the witnesses they have and evidence, I would think that would be enough for the United Nations to do something about it.

"It's been dubbed the most expensive prison on Earth and President Barack Obama cited the cost this week as one of many reasons to shut down the detention center at Guantanamo Bay, which burns through some $900,000 per prisoner annually."

Since our national dept is beyond high, it would be a good idea to shut this down, and find other ways to deal with these insane people. Obama may actually be doing something right this time.

I think Obama is doing the right thing. We are paying over $900,000 a year to keep one inmate in this prison which is way to much. Other prisons cost anywhere from $30,000-$70,000. I don't get why it costs so much to keep inmates there.

Second, the law prohibits protests at military funerals in the two hours immediately prior to and following a military funeral -- a measure, the President said, that will ensure that our servicemembers get laid to rest with "the utmost honor and respect."

One of the truly delightful things about college is that it allows earnest young people to try out all sorts of ridiculous ideas without causing much lasting harm. After graduation, most will grow up and learn how to laugh at their prior selves. (The rest will become professors.)

I don't get how doing this is a good thing, it may just cause more issues.
