Prisons

I talked about moving Gitmo HERE. And besides the irony of not seeming to mind insulting the competence of prison workers while claiming the CIA's wittle feelings are hurt by Nancy Pelosi, the truth is that if there's one thing the government is good at it's keeping prisoners IN PRISON. The current rate of escapees is fewer than one-half of one percent, and most of those are low-security prisons; during which the escape is kicked off by saying "Hey, I'm gonna go check the mailbox" and wandering away. I do not think anyone from Gitmo will go to one of these type facilities.

Just like the absurdity of the lunchline "the government can't deliver the mail!!," the fact is prisons are one thing we're AWESOME! at and everybody needs to quit crying over it.
