Supermax Won't Allow Inmates to Read Obama's Books
This is pretty funny. Officials at Supermax prison in Florence, Colorado have turned down an inmate's request to read the two books written by President Obama. Why?
The federal government's most secure prison has determined two books written by President Barack Obama contain material "potentially detrimental to national security" ....
What standards did the use to make the determination? Ones supplied by the F.B.I. Who requested the books?
Ahmed Omar Abu Ali is serving a 30-year sentence at the federal supermax prison in Florence for joining al-Qaida and plotting to assassinate then-President George W. Bush.
