Here's my thumbnail sketch of why Libby and Rove should be sent to Gitmo (using the President's logic):
- The CIA's operations are essential to fighting the war on terror.
- Keeping the CIA's operations secret in the war on terror is essential.
- Exposing an undercover CIA agent and their contacts impairs our ability to fight the war on terror, thus providing aid and comfort to our enemy; emboldening our enemy.
- Those who provide aid to comfort to our enemy are to be considered enemy combatants.
- All enemy combatants are to be stripped of their rights and kept at Gitmo.
