Okay, so...? I don't think it's a big deal.

Oh, no, that's fine. I'm just talking about the media. They're making this look like such a big deal and stuff. It's a good program that should stay in place. I guess it's newsworthy, but the way some of the media (i.e. ABC News) are portraying this is like it's some big masterfully unveiled plan that isn't right or something.

Quite frankly, I never saw this as some deep secret. I'm sure the media is like "Wow! He has secret prisons! Wow! Evil! *hiss*"

I agree that this isn't weird at all.

Yeah, I'm not really surprised about this either. They can abor all they want to, when others do this, but them doing it to? Wow, what a shock /sarcasam.
