This may not be mere political theater - Gitmo is not on U.S. soil (we lease it from Cuba) and I believe that this limits the jurisdiction of Federal courts. Moving detainees onto U.S. soil makes legal actions in the Federal courts much more attractive. It would probably also conserve the limited budgets of most of these "paupers" who have no funds to hire attorneys and the funds of attorneys who do this on a voluntary basis.
