I see your Sunday and raise you a day.
First defense is that he was “taken out of context.” Then he might blame Rush, Palin and/or Bush.

The legal system is corrupt and inefficient without bringin terrorists into the equation. Why SHOULD there be any respect for it whatsoever?

Supreme Court Encouraged New York Trials
Barack Obamas and Eric Holders trial decision exhibits consequences of Supreme Court malpractice. Notwithstanding catastrophic dangers justices Anthony Kennedy, David Souter, Ruth Ginsburg, Steven Breyer, and John Stevens eviscerated the political departments Constitutional authority regarding defense.
Legislative and Executive branches hold all defense powers. Congress has power to declare war. The President, as Commander in Chief, directs military operations, including armed force application, intelligence gathering, and disposition of captured enemies. These branches, most sensitive to citizen accountability, receive tasking for the most momentous issue concerning national viability.
The Constitution places no defense powers within the unelected Judiciary. Yet the justices disabled national defense in Hamdan vs. Rumsfeld by fabricating an association of terrorists with Common Article Three of Geneva Conventions. False because terrorists do participate in international armed conflict, lack pacific character, and do not meet definitions for legitimate armed forces.
These justices also improperly intruded with Bonemediene vs. Bush. They rejected guidelines developed from Hamdan vs. Rumsfeld and applied Habeas Corpus to enemy aliens contravening U.S. practice, Common Law, and Constitution.
These justices perpetrated judicial malpractice. Terrorists became citizens entering a legal conduit and backdoor into our society where their present and prospective unsurpassed butchery was equated to a civil murder. The judicial actions compare to surgical malpractice leaving a festering rag inside a body cavity. As those doctors should forfeit practice of medicine, these justices by impeachment should forfeit practice of law.
Now politicians shelter within these rulings and indulge personal moral orthodoxies forcing America into harms way.
We are doomed when conservative states like North Dakota send jerks to Washington like Conrad and Dorgan.
I know the ND Repubs are hopint ot intice the current GOP Governor to run against Dorgan next year. Gov. Hoeven says he’s thinking about it, but would need a very large campaign budget to entice him, since the Dems are amassing lots of funds to defend this senate seat. I expect we’ll be eharing more about the need to send some dollars to him.
We’ll need to keep our eyes on this one, as we may be able to pick it up next November.
This quote should be plastered all over North D. during election time
Kent Conrad is one of the biggest phonies in the Senate.
This is another case of a “lifetime civil servant” living by a different set of rules than the folks that pay his salary. He has never held a job in the private sector. After college he was a state tax commissioner and then was elected to the US Senate. No clue as to how the real world works. He needs to be retired at the earliest opportunity.
How about Senators who believe terrorists should receive constitutional protections leave the country and take those stupid enough to vote for them along.
The problem with Conrad and others like him, they live in
homogenous small populated states and don’t have a clue about the real world.
