Weekly Standard Bearers

Thomas Joscelyn on the unpleasant surprise awaiting the Obama admin re Gitmo. Clear and Present Danger:

… the important point for much of the commentariat is that Guantánamo will be shuttered. For Guantánamo’s many critics, the facility long ago became a symbol of all that is wrong with the Bush administration’s conduct of the war on terror-from its cowboy-like unilateralism to its alleged widespread torture and abuse of terrorist suspects. That many dangerous enemies lurk in Guantánamo’s cells has often been a secondary concern, if a concern at all.

Crittenden on Obama’s Debt of Gratitude to George Bush:

As the transition progresses and Barack Obama’s inauguration draws closer, it’s a good moment to mull the gifts George W. Bush has left for the incoming president. Bush has made the world a better place, and if Obama wants to do the same, he will take the good things Bush has done and move forward with them.
