Guantanamo Detainees: Headed for Northern Michigan from Politics Daily

"Standish is a company town of about 1,600 people. The penal complex is the largest employer in the area, providing work for over 300 state corrections workers. Although the local population is predictably squeamish about accused terrorists and suspected al-Qaeda or Taliban members moving into their midst, without the new business, the penitentiary is due to close."

If the folks in Congress can get out of the way, this place seems a fairly good prospect of handling most of the detainees. However, Republicans and many weak-kneed Democrats either won't or can't bring themselves to get out of Obama's way on this issue. It's an issue too easy to demagogue.
