Get a load of this post from Excitable Andy Sullivan, the world’s most insufferable pundit,

Gitmo Now
Disturbing reports of prison guards, knowing that their opportunity for IRFing, beating, degrading and abusing inmates is coming to an end, are increasing abuses. The Pentagon’s self-exoneration on the matter is, of course, ludicrous. I cannot confirm the accounts but I should say I fear the worst. Gitmo was created as a torture lab – and in the end, the guards who are part of that system behave accordingly.
Note the disregard that Sullivan has for the men and women in the U.S. military. Actually, disregard isn’t strong enough. How about utter contempt?
And what about those “disturbing reports”? It’s a Reuters story passing along smears from terorist lawyers,
LONDON (Reuters) – Abuse of prisoners at Guantanamo Bay has worsened sharply since President Barack Obama took office as prison guards “get their kicks in” before the camp is closed, according to a lawyer who represents detainees.
Good enough for Excitable Andy to slander and smear the men and women working at GITMO. Too bad for Excitable Andy, Attorney General Holder visited GITMO yesterday and he concluded the following,
Holder: Gitmo Well-Run, Professional
WASHINGTON – Attorney General Eric Holder said Wednesday the Guantanamo detention center is a well-run, professional facility that will be difficult to close — but he’s still going to do it.
What a tool Excitable Andy is. GITMO is closing because of useful idiots like Sullivan, and not because of the men and women who actually work there.
