Listen to the Right long enough, and you will hear the exact opposite thing come out of their mouths. Unlike the rest of us who change our stances from time to time, they won't even realize that it is a contradiction (even when you point it out to them). Part and parcel with this is their failure to take their own arguments down the path to their own logical conclusion. All of this because of Republican "certainty," that we are right and righteous in all cases, therefore any position they take is the correct one. As stated in the movie, "Doubt" "Certainty is an emotion, not a fact."
Right now, Gitmo's closure is the perfect example.
