But Obama giving these guys rights and respect just makes us such a better and safer country, right Ateam?

If I felt that anything more than 10% of the people we illegally detain were terrorists, I wouldn't care so much. Just because there are unrepentant terrorists means it's justified to be shackling and torturing innocent people and turning more people against us? Keeping secret prisons doesn't make us any safer, it destroys our moral standing and reinforces the idea that we're the bad guys.
