Darling of the Dems, Sen. Jim Webb, reverses course… opposes Obama’s Gitmo plans
In seems the room of supporters and admirers of Obama’s Gitmo plan is starting to clear…
Latest Dem to bolt is Jim Webb of Virginia… the much touted Dem darling of the 2006 midterms. The party was ecstatic to nab themselves a respectable military man who not only opposed the liberation of Iraq, but is also the father of an active duty Marine who was serving in Iraq at time.
Webb, however, has done a complete reversal from his original position on Gitmo stretching back to April 2007, when he not only advocated closing Gitmo, but either running the detainees thru the US judicial system, or declaring them prisoners of war.
