I don't see how they can possibly stretch appeals out that far, when they executed McVeigh so fast. Perhaps Holder and Obama can stretch it til the end of Zero's term, but the next administration is going to be pressured like nobody's business to get the job done.
Same with Hasan.
They talked about mirandizing the guy and the woman, Ortiz(?) said that they were enemy combatants and they had been advised not to mirandize him, so he was not. Lindsey Graham made the recommendation, he was, of course, a JAG.
Well, If my wishes can’t come true then fry his butt and get it over with. We must remember however, McVeigh was another time and another administration. I doubt this case will move as swiftly. IMHO
