[Protect the Bill of Rights]

My sense was that a plea deal of some sort could be worked out. I chose to ignore it (for now) or pretend I was reading too much into it.

I am having trouble wrapping my brain around so many things this past week. I don’t know how much more my brain can try to process.

They don’t need to make a deal with him to get information. 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.

"why Abdulmutallab should cooperate given his right, as criminal defendant, to remain silent, Brennan replied: "He doesn't have to"

...and that ladies and gentlemen is why Gitmo prisoners should not be brought to US spoil.

[maggief]

WTF?

Plea bargaining with a terrorist.

[DoughtyOne]

Naive doesn’t begin to describe this administration. They’re going to have to come up with a whole slew of new adjectives before this one goes away.

[Eddie01]

In China, a plea deal includes letting the condemned live 3 extra months from tomorrow.

Wish we had that.

Where did these guys go to school?

They certainly didn’t get beat up for their lunch money like the rest of us.

Let me tell you about my New Year's Day flight from Atlanta to Seattle. We're waiting at the gate area and here comes this (what looked like to me) tall American Black women all bedecked out in the usual female Muslim gear, you know, the silk headscarf and covered from neck to ankle with nice looking clothing (I don't know what they call it). Anyway, she waltzes up to the counter, gets a seat assignment, walks around the whole seating area looking for a seat. She had a tad of an attitude but maybe it was just me. The whole crowd looks like, "Oh Jesus, now what do we do?" Then a bearded Sikh guy (fwiw he "felt" okay, but who knows) waltzes up to the counter with his family - anyway he had that Sikh turban thingy on - and gets a seat assignment.

We just so happen were in the last row of the plane, 44, and the Muslim gal was 3 seats ahead of us, the Sikh guy was 2 seats ahead of us on the other side. I'm wondering, did they both get a crotch search? A total cavity search? I knew they hadn't, so it was tension city all the way to Seattle. Did anyone talk with them, interview them, like the Israelis do? I'm sweating bullets when she went to the bathroom. I honest to God almost didn't get on the plane. . .

Anyway, we made it, but unless things change, it's just a matter of time until 300 men, women and children get killed. There were a lot of kids on the plane. . .

The U.S. Government is offering the suspect charged with attempting to bomb an aircraft on Christmas Day, Omar Abdulmutallab, some kind of incentives to share what he knows about Al Qaeda, White House counterterrorism adviser John Brennan said Sunday.

A job as an FBI agent? CIA agent? Army psychologist? DHS Arabic translator? Obama National Security Adviser for Homeland Security and Counterterrorism in charge of "deals" Czar? State Department ambassador to Nigeria? Special adviser to the President in charge of closing Gitmo?

With all the traitors filling the government, the possibilities are endless.

[JustPiper]

[cripplecreek]

Abdulmutallab should demand a cabinet position.

[ditto h]

Just an empty suit.

[Beagle8U]

Offer him a deal?

I'll offer the little bastard a deal...Tell me everything I want to know and you get to live one more day.

If you don't, you will live 100 more days.

Long before the 100 days was up the worthless SOB would opt for the first deal or spill his guts on everything, and everyone, that he ever knew!

Now the Tangos he was working with will run for their hiding holes.

So, the Green Jobs Czar position is still open? (Probably can't move him immediately into the DHS position.)
