Don’t get a warm, fuzzy feeling about terrorists being released into your neighborhood? Neither do some Republican lawmakers. They’ve introduced a bill called the Keep Terrorists Out of America Act:
Several GOP lawmakers on Thursday introduced the Keep Terrorists Out of America Act, which prohibits the Obama administration from transferring or releasing any suspected terrorists at Guantanamo to any state without expressed approval from the state’s governor and legislature. The legislation also demands the administration certify to Congress that certain requirements have been met.

” prohibits the Obama administration from transferring or releasing any suspected terrorists”
Key word: Suspected.
What if that person is innocent? Whilst the GOP supporting morons are out on pointless tea parties, calling for more “liberty”; they’re withholding the liberty of an innocent? The GOP is the most contradictory party (on it’s pro-life stance, on it’s economic stance, and it’s “terrorist” stance) in a very long time.
