CNN’s Piers Morgan, ‘Obama Fan,’ Quite Dismayed at Guantanamo Remaining Open
On Monday night's “Piers Morgan,” the CNN host professed his admiration for President Obama – but like any good liberal, sounded his disappointment that the Guantanamo Bay detention camp is still open. He tried to get his guests to share similar sentiments. “I am quite an Obama fan, but I was quite disappointed that he did the big U-turn on Guantanamo, actually,” Morgan admitted. Hosting cast members of the upcoming film “The Conspirator,” Morgan asked if the ethical issues in the plot – the post-Civil War trial of an accused co-conspirator in Lincoln's assassination – mirrored the ethical and constitutional questions of military trials of terrorists at Guantanamo, shortly after another American crisis.
