Holder: If KSM somehow is not convicted, he will still not be released – may be sent to Bagram
So much for trying to demonstrate to the world the “fairness” of our justice system:
A word of advice for Andrew Sullivan on “going silent”
Oh dear, dear, dear, dear. The release of Sarah Palin’s book Going Rogue has compelled her virtual stalker Andrew Sullivan – a favorite columnist, I should note, of the WH’s – to have his blog “go silent” for only the second time in ten years (via Villainous Company):
Democrat theme of the week: “Let’s not ‘cower’ over KSM civilian trial”
Because (mostly) conservatives are objecting strongly to the Obama admin’s disgraceful decision to try the self-professed “mastermind” of 9/11 – KSM – in a civilian court, this week’s talking point amongst the left contains some subtle, and in some cases not so subtle, accusations that those who would prefer KSM be tried in a military court rather than a civilian court are “cowards.” First up, Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-VT):
Quote of the day
“I cannot claim to have completely read “Going Rogue” — I had to skim the last 150 pages (or more than one-third). I only got the thing into my hands late Monday afternoon with a deadline of early evening. It’s terrible, I know, but if I didn’t read it all, neither can Sarah Palin claim to have completely written it. “
Yes, liberals – it IS wrong for the POTUS to bow at 90 degrees to other heads of state
It never fails that any criticism of President Obama from conservatives is met with the usual “they’re overblowing it/they’re being stupid” cry from some on the left, and this weekend is no different. In response to the legitimate outcry over the President bowing at a clear 90 degree angle to Japanese Emperor Akihito, liberals at blogs like “The Moderate Voice” (does that place even have any moderates posting there anymore?), Alan Colmes’ blog, and others are blasting conservatives for getting upset at our President allegedly “observing a cultural custom.”
