The only way he gets out early is if he agrees to be executed.

I do think he should stay but I cannot understand why Hicks got such a light sentence.

This kid is lucky he wasn’t shot. He should thank the feds for letting him off so easy.

Amazing that he didn’t wait until 2008 to make this request. He could have gotten a ticker tape parade with a Democrat in the White House.

Let him rot.
And I hope he’s somebody’s butt boy.

Set him free, he will be a regular on CNN, NY Times will do a front page magazine on him, and Nancy Pelosi might do the Monica Lewinsky / Bill Clinton reenactment with him.

"In the atmosphere of the time, the best John could get was a plea bargain and a 20-year sentence," said Lindh's father Frank Lindh.

Screw him and his parents. He should have been tried and execute for treason.

called on President Bush on Wednesday to commute his sentence and set him free. In this one case, I really wish the President had the power to triple the length of prison terms.

I think Hicks got a light sentence in deference to our ally, Australia.
Also, I don’t recall all the details, but it seems to me that Lindh was implicated in that hospital prison escape in Afghanistan, in which a CIA officer was murdered.

In WWII he would have been shot. He should be grateful that he’s alive.

he was given nine months because he’s been in gitmo for 5 years and Australia says they are going to pick him up at Gitmo, take him back to Australia, and charge him with terrorism crimes which means he could end up spending many more years in an australian prison as well.

"We love our son very much, he was wrongly accused when he was found in Afghanistan." He should stay in jail until his parents admit what he did was wrong and accept responsibility for screwing up their kid.

In remembrance of Mike Spann, President Bush had better not reduce this traitors sentence.
