Day 2 in the White House

Obama's second day as President of the United States. Today, January 22, he signed two executive orders, one to close GITMO Prison Camp within one year, and the other to ban harsh interrogation methods, such as water torture to detainees for the remaining time GITMO is operational. All detainees held will probably be tried on war crimes and few transferred. Also, early this morning, Caroline Kennedy withdrew from the New York Senate Race for personal reasons. New York District 20 First Term Democratic Represenative Kirstin Gillibrand is expected to fill the seat.
