I heard a frightening analysis tonight: If KSM is not freed for not having been Mirandized, then it creates a new legal precedent for all U.S. citizens.

So, either KSM is freed (a travesty), and the Bill of Rights is preserved; or he is convicted, and the Bill of Rights is superseded by new precedent (a travesty).

Obama wins either way; and U.S. citizens lose either way.

The whole Miranda business was cooked up by liberals to level the playing field between cops and crooks (crooks being poor oppressed victims of The Man you see). I would consider it a bonus if the KSM case somehow did away with Miranda.
