You have been here 2.5 years, yet have only posted a relative handful of times. And suddenly you're quite active on a thread, crying about pom-poms and censorship. Do you really think you're fooling anybody, especially the moderators?

Look, we're really sorry that your circus forum was run out of town, but there are still plenty of forums where passionate clowns are welcome. Best of luck to you!

up until now - this whole issue has been abstract to most americans - because these terrorists are essentially "faceless".

now (assuming this report is correct), Bush is going to serve up the 3 top SOBs and tell the left (and McCain and Graham and Wagner) - "go explain to the american people why they deserve this package of rights you want to give them".

hey, this had to happen at some point. Bush is "all in" now on this issue, it will be a major part of the 2006 election.

Listen, the court made a ruling. Now the President has to act in accordance or be in violation of the law (for now.)

You need to wait until you hear what he has to say. To spin this as a "read my lips" moment is unfair and unbearably transparent. The President is not above the law...he is not a dictator.

Thats what it looks like to me too, the 3 HVTs caught in the past are going to Gitmo...hopefully for a quick trial and death sentence.

Perhaps even a constitutional fight over who runs the show during "war".

I can see him announcing he'll try these murders in a CLOSED military tribunal...no press, no observers. They'll be appointed military lawyers. The proceeding will be classified in accordance with the evidence used against them.

If found guilty, they'll face a firing squad.

The so-called "moderate" republicans, MSM and all dims will be in full frenzy and the WOT politics will be crystalized for the voting public in November.

It has nothing to do with "read my lips", its the liberal judiciary that has been ensconced for 40 years, ruling against the US, as usual.

He has to now ask the congress to write legislation.

Still don't see why that requires requesting the presence of 9/11 families.

Why are they called the 9/11 familes? What happened to them, and who was responsible?

If you are right...then it just ups my respect for President Bush because he does what he "believes"...and pursues it.

He believes that these are war criminals, prisoners of war, whatever you want to call them...but NOT to be pampered and treated like American citizens that just did a bad deed.

He is fighing his own party on this...but NOT the people in his party that he cares about, IMHO>

this reminds me of what is must have felt like before JFK's famous speech.
