“Treat him like Bush/Cheney treated the Shoe Bomber, Richard Reid. Waterboard him till he gives us everything he knows, then try him before a Military Commission and place him before a firing squad. Thats the way Real American Men treat Terrorists.”

Except for the little FACT that Reid was tried and convicted in a US Federal Court, and is serving a life sentence.


Are you sure? I thought that must have been what the Bush/Cheney Administration did because that’s what Cheney is recommending now.

Bus /Cheney were inconsistent, and left many things started but not finished.

It seems it was case by case.

Huh? I thought they must have done that because that’s what Cheney wants Obama to do now. So they gave Richard Reid all Constitutional rights, gave him a civilian trial and didn’t waterboard him or execute him. It’s kind of funny Cheney would criticize Obama for doing the same thing with this guy.

Do you know how many terrorists were tried by military commissions under Bush/Cheney and how many were executed? I bet a whole lot more than Obama is doing.

Going from memory, I can’t recall even a single execution, from military tribunals or civil trials.

I noticed Lieberman stating that the crotchbomber shouldn’t get civilian criminal justice treatment, Miranda, etc.

And that is more/less the concept raised by Cheney.

But the facts on Reid and possible others doesn’t give them much to go with.

All this sure seems strange to me. I don’t know how we’re gonna win the War on Terror this way, when both the Republicans and the Democrats seem unwilling to do what what needs to be done to win.
