If we are at war, this man wouldn’t have beem mirandized, been given an expensive public defender and clammed up to protect his 5th Amendment “right” against self-incrimination. Just because Obama claims war, doesn’t mean he is acting like it is so.

Exactly! These are just words. I’ll believe him when he takes some actions to show he means it... starting with:
1. Canceling the closure of Gitmo
2. Sending this latest terrorist there
3. Giving a call to Holder and telling him to cancel the civilian trials he’s scheduling for the Gitmo terrorists
4. Changing the rules of engagement in Afghanistan, etc. so that soldier are allowed to fight a war and not be cops.
5. Start profiling a la Israelis
This would be a good start. If the republicans pols are smart (doubtful) they will hold his feet to the fire with these points. Words aren’t sufficient - we want action that backs them up!!
