"They will act like they are going along with it at first, but eventually their hatred for Bush and their nut case base will push them over the cliff."
They cant go along with this ... all along we were told that Gitmo was another Gulag, that the WOT was a diversion, that Bush advocated torture ... all the Democrats whole political agenda is about how everything Bush does is a failure.
If they agree, they will have admitted they were wrong all along.
If they obstruct, they will have handed an issue to the Republicans.
Let me be the first to predict the Democrats will howl 'at the timing of it'.
"Bush led, Democrats fled"
"Democrats lied while terrorist victims died"
It is just such a shame, or disgrace or something that he HAD to say this , or that it has to be done this way. I am so freaking appalled at all of this I cannot tell you.
"We will find you, and we will bring you to justice."
I know he has to phrase it that way, but the "bring you to justice" thing smacks of long-drawn out comfortable trials in beautifully panelled Americn courtrooms.
Weak.
He should at least IMPLY a tireless hunt, a relentless stalking of this scum leading to an inevitable end, a wasted, meaningless death in some squalid corner of THEIR backward, barbaric $hitnole of a country at the hands of the US military.

"The Dems are screwed?? Terrorists now are to be tried as war criminals in U. S. courts, fully defended by Ramsey Clark and a panoply of volunteer ACLU enemies of liberty, who will claim, in part, that inasmuch as the Congress has not formally declared war on anyone these "illegally" detained defendants cannot be guilty of war crimes."
This is not true, that is not what is required nor planned (there are still military tribunals but USSC ruling requires some Congressional action to specific rules) but even if it were, it would definitely help expose the anti-American terrorist supporters for who they really are.
That will be their trick. They will appear to agree at first, and then work to undermine the legislation when it comes to negotiations and amendments. The MSM will try to give them cover so the 'new media' better be watching as always to call them on it.
he is the one poster that, even when you AGREE with him, he still wants to argue with you.
There is a growing puddle of Rat blood on the floor
You overlook the power of repetition. By saying the names over and over and over the point will bee made that action was sucessful.
all that could be done, has been done. we can't expect the President to fight the war all alone - with the entire judiciary against him, and Congress unwilling to pass needed laws, and on and on. Bush pursued this to the end, what do you want him to do now?
He has challenged Congress here - he has served up the worst of the captured terrorist bunch, 9/11 plotters, and is telling Congress "what rights would you like to give them?".
We know where the Dems are on this, and unfortunately in the Senate, there are many republican weak hands on this issue, led by McCain and Graham. That's the reality we are dealing with.
BTTT
It wasn't my intent to fault Bush in regard to this matter. He has been fighting a multifront war, especially since he had the audacity to win re-election in '04. A a major front in that war is the domestic partisan war that has been declared against the person of George W. Bush, largely motivated and exacerbated by borderline insanity of personal hate in the service of partisan politics.
