Because he did not want the military to waste time being jailers. Obama continues to keep Gitmo open. AWKWARD

yeah right.
If Rummy wanted to do that it was so he could turn them over to people who could torture without that pesky constitution getting in the way.

I think most politicians would like to close it. The reality of the situation has proven that none of them have the cajones to do so.

Typical uniformed, independent, idiot. Oh, and a Gingrich supporter.

Obama signs order to close Guantanamo Bay facility
Promising to return America to the "moral high ground" in the war on terrorism, President Obama issued three executive orders Thursday to demonstrate a clean break from the Bush administration, including one requiring that the Guantanamo Bay detention facility be closed within a year.
During a signing ceremony at the White House, Obama reaffirmed his inauguration pledge that the United States does not have "to continue with a false choice between our safety and our ideals."
The president said he was issuing the order to close the facility in order to "restore the standards of due process and the core constitutional values that have made this country great even in the midst of war, even in dealing with terrorism."

A second executive order formally bans torture by requiring that the Army field manual be used as the guide for terrorism interrogations. That essentially ends the Bush administration's CIA program of enhanced interrogation methods.
"We believe that the Army field manual reflects the best judgment of our military, that we can abide by a rule that says we don't torture, but that we can still effectively obtain the intelligence that we need," Obama said."This is me following through ... on an understanding that dates back to our founding fathers, that we are willing to observe core standards of conduct not just when it's easy but also when it's hard."

Unclear if Guantanamo prison closed by 2013: Holder
"I don't know," Holder told a House of Representatives appropriations subcommittee. "We will do all that we can."
Holder declined to offer any new details about plans on how the administration will prosecute terrorism suspects held at the Guantanamo Bay prison, but he said repeatedly that the administration still planned to close the facility.

Gitmo should be kept open.
So we can load it up with politicians, bureaucrats, central bankers, lobbyists and Wall Street vermin.
