With the impending closure of containment facilities at Gitmo the "thorny" problem of the future of terrorist detainees hhas been difficult to determine for the Obama administration. The problem they seemed not to understand is that these are bad people that nobody wants. Gitmo is perfect- isolated in a place that is hard to get into and virtually impossible to leave. Where, oh where, can we go to replace those characteristics? Problem solved! Thanks to my birth state- Montana- an answer has appeared. Montana is a long way from anywhere ( the classic "you can't get there from here" kind of place). The natives would probably make an escapee wish he was being water boarded rather than facing an angry cowboy. Only one problem. We will have to rename the state Guantanamontana. Framed properly in the context of "hope and change" the name change would be just fine. Think of the tourist PR potential. See the Big Sky state and 200 terrorists all in one visit!
