After the hoopla of winning the election, and a lot of wonk-talk about the cabinet posts, I was so greatful to read this today:

I think that closing Gitmo as one of his firsts acts in office will send a strong message to the world, and americans at home, that morality is back on the table as an important american value.

NOTE: Pre-emptive anti-snark statement… I know the witch has many sisters and that Glinda herself has been known to cohort with lobbyists, but give a munchkin a chance to party a bit. ; )
