When the U.S. Supreme Court last month restored Guantanamo detainees' right to sue for their freedom in federal courts, Democrat Barack Obama called the ruling "an important step toward re-establishing our credibility as a nation committed to the rule of law."

Republican John McCain, however, condemned the divided court's decision as "one of the worst decisions in the history of this country."

Neither campaign is willing to say where its candidate prefers to house the terrorism suspects, the Herald reported Sunday.

McCain had often designated Fort Leavenworth, the U.S. military prison for criminal soldiers in Kansas, until fellow Republican senators from Kansas said the Sunflower State didn't want the detainees.

Obama says he would move the detainees to a military prison.

"Those who are dangerous should be transferred to a secure military facility in the United States and brought to trial and swift justice," he says on his campaign Web site.
