The mayor of Alexandria VA issues a protest over the possibility of the Gitmo prisoners being housed in his town.
William D. Euille (D) is not a happy camper as he finds Alexandria is on the short list as final destination for all or a few of the Gitmo detainees.

Most of us fully understand his reluctance of wanting these terrorists in his own back yard.

Here is the hitch.
His mindset is not different than most other officials thinking the shut down of Gitmo is the best deal since sliced bread. Not many of them want the detainees landing on their own front stoop either.

Actually I think what is good for the goose is good for the gander.
If you think it up and support it … well then be responsible.
Belly up to the bar and lead the charge.

In this case the charge is detainees in your own house.

Personally I feel if they need to be spread into the communities of the USA? … first stop is the Lincoln Bedroom.

It does not take rocket science to figure out if those leading the charge for some of this change were called on FIRST to sacrifice for it the scenery of today would be drastically different.
