Exactly. If we’re going to take a hit, might as well take it where it will do the most good and least damage.

For example, if aliens came by and said “The bad news is that we have to hit your country with a 5 megaton nuclear weapon. The good news is you get to pick where,” the correct answer is “Please detonate it out in the middle of the desert in New Mexico, we even have a nice marker for you to use as a target.”

Foreigner attacked our naval vessel overseas. We can’t try him in a military court??? Absurd.

WTF!!! Does not even begin to cover this. Did anyone really think about the unintended consequences of closing Gitmo and this move? Which is more important satisfying a small percentage of one's own voting block or the security of a whole nation?

Pray for safety, wisdom, and guidance for our Troops and the agencies that protect us here at homeland.

Excuse me, why are we endeavoring to “discover” that the Gitmo trials are illegal? In the case of the Cole this was a US military vessel attacked by foreigners in the Middle East. Are you aware of some requirement that the military hand these guys over to, say, a civilian criminal court in New York?

The entire exercise is unecessary except to a liberal meddler (Obama).

In politics, perception is reality.

There really is no reason to delay any of the trials. 0bama is playing to his base. While bitching about the long detention of these terrorists, he has just added 4 months additional to their stay, delaying justice even further. The DU and Kos Kids are all thrilled about it. Dumb!

They will eventually be tried, in one court or another. He would not dare release them otherwise.

The unfortunate thing is that this seems to be rampant on all topics on FR these days. And if people think it doesn't make FR look like a bunch of ignorant loons, then they've stuck their heads deeply in the sand.

I often wonder if the knee-jerk faux conservatives are agents provocateur.

This is becoming a matter of him doing so many outrageous things, that he thinks after a while we’ll tire of protesting and complaining eventually turn into mush and just become immune. I suppose.

I think you're onto something there, bergmeid. This has been an outrageous couple of weeks under President B. Hussein Obama...

Apparently he’s deciding whether or not it should be done under military commision. Either way, I think it’s poor judgement to review something like this at this coarse.

Adding to your posit, how far down the line of presidential succession is the Secretary of State? I mean, most of the folks in the Obamanistration are from her (husband's) administration anyway

VP (Biden), Speaker of the House (Pelosi), President Pro Tempore of the Senate (Robert Byrd), SOS Her Heinous. Biden has had two serious incidents of brain aneurysms and Robert Byrd is 400 years old, but Nancy would fight to the death and, except for being overwhelmingly stupid, is otherwise healthy as far as we know.

Most likely scenario IMO is Biden makes Hillary his VP. Remember one of his gaffes when he told all of us she was fully qualified to be VP even President and that she just might have been a better VP pick than himself...
