USA TODAY just released a stunning USA TODAY/Gallup Poll that shows Americans are overwhelmingly oppose closing the detention center at Guantanamo Bay and moving some of the detainees to prisons on US soil.
By more than 2-1, those surveyed say Guantanamo shouldn’t be closed. By more than 3-1, they oppose moving some of the accused terrorists housed there to prisons in their own states.
In the survey, Americans were inclined to accept the argument by Cheney and former president George W. Bush that the detention center had made the United States safer. By 40%-18%, they said the prison had strengthened national security rather than weakened it.
For weeks we heard countless calls for Cheney to shut up and go away from the moderates like Powell and the MSM loves to bring them on to attack their own in hopes of demoralizing the base of the Republican party and to provide fire for the Left to use in their attacks of the Right.
Once again their claims, that our opposition of Obama’s policies will harm the Republican party, have been proven to be overwhelmingly wrong and without merit as is usually the case.
Now is the time for the party to come together and fight for what we believe in with confidence and purpose and for the moderates to stop allowing themselves to serve as the MSM’s useful idiots which does in fact harm the Republican party and our ability to get our message across.
Score another one for the Conservatives and Cheney who’s recent speeches have proven to be effective and should serve as example for us going forward.
