Colbert smacks down Brownback

Posted by Justin Kendall on Wed, May 20, 2009 at 10:19 AM

On Tuesday, Kansas U.S. Sen. Sam Brownback gushed about how Guantanamo Bay is a special snowflake of a maximum security prison and scoffed at the mere thought that Fort Leavenworth could hold back detainees. These prisoners must be like Wolverine times ten. Anyway, Brownback must have been reeling from Monday night's ripping by Stephen Colbert, who ripped Brownback's arguments against moving Guantanamo's detainees to Fort Leavenworth. Here's The Word:

Brownback is a moron. Did he just come right out and admit that they're currently housing dangerous criminals in an insecure facility near a major metropolitan area?

BTW, Chuck Graner is getting pretty pissed. He says if you guys won't send him any torturers to keep him company, Gitmo detainees will work just fine.

Yeah. Remember how Batman put Mr Ice in prison and then he busted out! What mere earth prison of bricks and steel could ever hold SUPER DETAINEEs? We need much more! Garlic! Holy Water! Wolf Bane! Silver Bullets! Kryptonite!

See, its fools like you who write this type of article that are attacking Brownback just because you don't like him. Wake up!!! Even Queen Sebelius was against Gitmo prisoners in Kansas!!!!! In fact, she even wrote a letter to Obama stating her opposition. Your article is just plain stupid. "uh.. yeah.. put the Taliban in my back yard. I'm ok with it." Go smoke your mary jane somewhere else. I hear Pakistan is nice this time of year.
