The Senate GOP, at work again...

[Let's Roll]

They have been granted some basic rights ... they're still alive.

[teletech]

NYT BS ALERT.

[AdvisorB]

Warner's not going to do anything that would jeopardize his relationship with the arch lefties at the Washington Compost. Although Warner's the ranking senior senator from the great state of Virginia, he's actually the compost's poodle in the US Senate.

[MizSterious]

Oh, for cryin' out loud. What's the matter with these people? If we leave it to them, we'll have to fight all future wars in the court system, while the enemy hacks, burns and bombs their way to victory. Maybe we should start suiting up all the ambulance chasers and let them view battlefield conditions first-hand--maybe then they'd have a different opinion of what we're up against, and why we need a different justice system for terrorists.

The NYT has their favorite RINO pals in the Senate on speed-dial..they don't work alone.

"Maybe we should start suiting up all the ambulance chasers and let them view battlefield conditions first-hand--maybe then they'd have a different opinion of what we're up against, and why we need a different justice system for terrorists."

Paging John Edwards...

[Gabz]

Great idea!!!!!

[MNJohnnie]

It the NY Al Aeda Times. Who knows if they even quoted Waner correctly? Their coverage of what the SC Court Decision did was totally wrong. Basically all the SC did this week was totally screw over their NY Lies Terrorist buddies. The Court says the Military cannot try them. The 2nd part of the McCain "Anti Torture" Amendment says they cannot be tried in Civilian Courts and even this weeks SC Decision admits they can be held "as long as hostilities exists" which means in this case for ever.

Give those facts maybe it is best if Congress drags it feet. Why rush to give the Terrorist a hearing in any court? Let them rot.

[Mike Darancette]

Turn them over to the Afghan government for disposal.

[AntiGovernment]

Breyer's short concurrence is actually quite reasonable. He says that Congress still has full authority to permit the executive branch to start such military courts.

[TheGeezer]

The president should ignore this ruling. The court has done something dangerous and possibly unconstitutional.

[SouthCarolinaKit]

Not surprising from a man who selected Liz Taylor, in all her intelligence, as a wife!

[TRY ONE]

The ANSWER:

Send Federal Judges to Afghanstan/Iraq for the trial!

[GAB-1955]

I don't see the problem of holding regular military courts-martials for the terrorists. They'll have to stay in jail, and the military courts have their own appeals courts, so the Ninth Circuit can't free them.

[headstamp]

Ah, "Lieutenant Noballs" makes his utterly predictable response.

The Senate might have to do something a little complicated so we can try and dispose of terrorists who want to kill us by the bushel. Perish the thought.

[headstamp]

If it was up to these hacks, we'd still be playing games with the Nazis at Nuremberg.

[Darnright]

John Warner ping

[Logical me]

"We're going to do this extremely carefully and accurately, or we're going to end up with a solution that once again ends up being the subject of litigation, and possibly being overturned," Mr. Warner said in an interview in his office.

Yes probably will be overturned. When you have 5 members of the SC in the left and are anti-American what can we expect. Doubt these 5 ever read the Constitution and are devoid of gray matter.
