The Al-Qaeda Bar (Big Law Firms Line Up to Represent Terrorists)
The Two Malcontents ^ | 11/24/2009 | Rowan Scarborough

Posted on 11/25/2009 11:55:24 AM PST by mojito

Some of the nation’s wealthiest and most powerful law firms have donated hundreds of millions of dollars in free legal services to terror suspects at the Guantanamo Bay prison.

Their work, bolstered by left-wing activists groups, has helped to free, or force the transfer, of hundreds of al Qaeda suspects to third countries. Some have gone back to terrorism and the job of trying to kill Americans.

The work of big American law firms on behalf of al Qaeda is drawing new attention since Attorney General Eric Holder decided this month that Khalid Sheik Mohammed, who orchestrated the murder of over 3,000 9-11, is coming to New York City for trial. Holder was a partner at Covington & Burling, which in 2005 gave one its attorneys an award for aiding 17 Yemeni suspects at Guantanamo.

I hope that the next time the terrorists hit the US these lawyers are in the building, every one of them.

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.
We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream.
It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same,
or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children
and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.
"
President Ronald Reagan

Covington & Burling, where Eric Holder is a senior partner, is expecting a pay off from all this pro bono work. Once Holder establishes that the terrorists are actually victims they'll be able to sue taxpayers for millions.

If it walks like a Duck and it quacks like a duck and it swims like a Duck!
Therefore we can safely conclude that Obama HUSSEIN is a Muslim Plant in the White House who is intent on Destroying America!
This Fiasco fits with his destroying Egypt and everyone of our other Allies and siding with Chavez against the Honduran People and Constitution!
