Bush Closing Guantanamo?

From ABC:

Sources have confirmed that President Bush is expected to be briefed on these pressing GTMO issues–and may reach a decision on the future of the naval base as a prison for al Qaeda suspects–before he leaves for the G8 on Saturday. An announcement, however, is not expected before he leaves the country.

If the detention camp is closed it will take an issue off the table for Barack Obama who has promised to close the facility.

A June Supreme Court decision granted suspected terrorists being held at the detention facility the right of habeas corpus. John McCain sided with the White House in blasting the decision. Obama applauded the decision.
