"GITMO Act of 2008"

Short entry, but deserving of it's own post. Rep. Louis Gohmert (R-TX) has introduced House Bill 6615. Description of H.R. 6615: To provide for the transport of the enemy combatants detained in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba to Washington, DC, where the United States Supreme Court will be able to more effectively micromanage the detainees by holding them on the Supreme Court grounds, and for other purposes.

A little farther down in the bill:

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

This Act may be cited as the "Giving Inmate Terrorists More Opportunities (GITMO) Act of 2008".

Obviously not going to pass or even come to a vote, but worth mentioning.

    Obviously Rep. Gohmert is in a safe district this cycle if he is pulling a stunt like this.
