Does this make sense?

Breitbart reports that the National Intelligence (?) Director, Dennis Blair testified before the Senate Armed Services Committee that "some Guantanamo inmates may be released on US soil and receive assistance to return to society."

At the same time, Janet Napolitano, Head of Homeland Security, "turned down an offer for more money to fight crime along the U.S.'s southern border, saying she'll pay for it with the funds she has."

Now, here's my question. If the powers that be in D.C. are going to release known terrorists (which means: people who want to kill us simply because we exist) into the general population AND on the dime of the American taxpayer (welfare, food stamps, etc.), why worry about the border?
