...one of the first things he did when elected.

Cheney-Bush stopped following the Geneva convention thousands and thousands of tortures, naked dog collared prisoners, naked people in dog cages, cattle prod shocked people 1,000s of waterboardings ago.

Send those people home..its to late to make trials and crap like that. WT heck good are trials NOW years later.?? They have been punished enough and I don't think most Americans want to pay for that kind of Military or Federal Gov.

Send those people home and if they are afraid to go 'home' or have no home..set them up somewhere else.
