This story about Janet Rhino's efforts to become the worst ex-AG in this country's history has already been covered and well discussed in Free Republic here and here. However, the WS Journal does such an excellent job of summarizing things that I just couldn't resist posting their analysis of the event.

I suspect many of you will agree that in this case, the third time's the charm.

"Former Attorney General Janet Reno and seven other former Justice Department officials filed court papers Monday arguing that the Bush administration is setting a dangerous precedent by trying a suspected terrorist outside the court system,"

Has Waco completely slipper her mind? And her, let's forget arrest and trail and just burn em, policy?

She didn't allow the women and children in Waco to have a trial, she just torched them. She has NO ROOM TO TALK.

Why doesn't she just continue the family tradition and wrestle alligators?

There's still time for Congress to pass a law that all former officials of the Clinton Administration are to be deported to France.

"Reno is a just an ordinary nobody."

With all due respect, and I mean that.

She is not an ordinary nobody, I'M an ordinary nobody. She is guilty of mass murder of men, women, and children.

Some say the Oklahoma bombing was a terrorist act. It was not, it was an abominable act of revenge, for Waco. Both are HER fault.

Not to mention her tactics in several child abuse cases when she was a prosecutor in Miami in the '80s. So disturbing were her methods that even liberal PBS did 2 Frontline programs about her cases:

All Due Respect Mutley, I doubt you are a nobody. And as for Reno, she might of been somebody at one time, but now (thank God) she is just a nobody. Janet Reno is guilty of many things, of which she will have to answer to a Higher authority.

Ah yes, Janet Reno, the AG that burned little children alive is worried that terrorists won't get a fair trial! That is just rich!

"Janet Reno is guilty of many things, of which she will have to answer to a Higher authority."

Thanks for reminding me. That is the only thing that gives me comfort about her.

This from the woman whose Justice Department was responsible for the urder of dozens of Americans at the Waco Branch Davidian compound, and kidnapping a child at gunpoint to return him to a tyrannical regime. However, trying a 'suspected' terrorist in a military tribunal? That's just unacceptable!

Just tell sasquatch that most Mexicans are devout Catholics and she'll hunt them all down and kill them.

"The government is essentially asserting the right to hold putative enemy combatants arrested in the United States indefinitely whenever it decides not to prosecute those people criminally _ perhaps because it would be too difficult to obtain a conviction, perhaps because a motion to suppress evidence would raise embarrassing facts about the government's conduct, or perhaps for other reasons," the former Justice Department officials said.

Or perhaps the government doesn't want to have the ACLU work and spend all their time getting this bozo off so he can go home and rejoin al-Qaida.

Or perhaps they have not finished getting Intel from this worm

Or perhaps I could care les if they detain him until the flesh rots off his body
