Gitmo


Obama announced he'll close it and "Saturday Night Live" had a commercial for a going-out-of-business sale from Guantanamo Bay.

"Hoods! Blindfolds! Shackles! Chains! Dog bones for people! If it's used to humanely detain or interrogate prisoners, we've got it! And we're passing the savings onto you."

SNL host Rosario Dawson played one satisfied customer who purchased a portrait of Donald Rumsfeld while Jason Sudeikis was the CIA agent advertising the sale.

"Gitmo bargains, gitmo savings, gitmo of everything you need!"

VERY FUNNY!!!! Yeah without a plan as to what to do with inmates might as well sell stuff off it's just as funny.

It was a scream. Reminiscent of the spots Ackroyd used to do. Bass-o-matic. Bag-o-glass. E. Buzz Miller in general.

About 3 years too early for the sale. And only after the new scheme is finalized to deny the prisoners fair US court trails which protect their rights.

They aren't US citizens and have no US rights.

Don't worry those aren't US rights, they are HUMAN rights!

Rights are not given by governments. Rights are inherent. Governments can only recognize these rights, or fail to.

Our constitution does not mention citizens rights. It talks about human rights. These prisoners do absolutely have rights, and the courts will certainly back that up.

No US rights? George Bush is gone, and hopefully that ignorant, backward, anti-american thinking will die out soon.

Goof is right. Anyone stepping foot into this country who isn't American, we can just treat them like C r @ 9P, cause by Golly, they aren't like us.

I thought it was one of the better sketches on last night's show, it was pretty funny, including the part with the Rumsfeld portriat. I liked it a lot better than that pointless digital short thay had on (or any of them for that matter).

Take a moment to consider the fact that you just need a sense of humor..

It's SNL who needs a sense of humor. I couldn't think of a more unfunny show.

It was funny, but what I found even funnier is that a Puerto Rican flag was flying behind him instead of a Cuban flag! Someone did not do its homework.

Gitmo might be under the United States Territory of Puerto Rico's islands. It is right next to PR.
