I wouldn't want to be him when Miranda and her husband get through with him.

All seven Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee have signed a letter to Attorney General Eric Holder seeking to learn who made the decision to treat Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, the accused Christmas Day terrorist bomber, as a criminal suspect rather than an enemy combatant. On the same day he tried to detonate a bomb aboard a Northwest Airlines plane in Detroit, Abdulmutallab, who was trained by al Qaeda in Yemen, was informed of his Miranda right to remain silent and given a government-paid lawyer. He then refused to cooperate with U.S. authorities.
The letter is signed by GOP Sens. Jeff Sessions, Orrin Hatch, Charles Grassley, Jon Kyl, Lindsey Graham, John Cornyn, and Tom Coburn. The lawmakers were rattled by testimony yesterday before both the Judiciary Committee and the Homeland Security Committee by some of the nation's top law enforcement and anti-terrorism officials. All of those who testified -- FBI director Robert Mueller, National Counterterrorism Center director Michael Leiter, Director of National Intelligence Dennis Blair, and Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano -- said they were not consulted about the decision to handle Abdulmutallab in the criminal courts.
The letter asks who made the decision as well as the basis for the decision. In addition, it asks Holder to answer "whether the administration has a protocol or policy in place for handling al Qaeda terrorists captured in the United States."

What did Obama know, and when did he know it?
1-20-13 cannot come soon enough.
“All seven Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee have signed a letter to Attorney General Eric Holder seeking to learn who made the decision to treat Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, the accused Christmas Day terrorist bomber, as a criminal suspect rather than an enemy combatant.”
Because of the responses from the security chiefs, Holder or a subordinate, who MUST have got his OK, is the one...he HAD to have given the OK to waive off the Feds and hand him over to the Brooklyn Dicks...there is no other explanation...
There is a mutiny going on in their party right now my brother.
By the grace of Allah, Barack Hussein Obama doth hereby covey citizenship to the Muzzie POS!
It’s got to be the jihadi loving, American hating Holder who ordered the Mirandizing. He and his law firm have been defending terrorists for years.
“FBI Director Robert Mueller, in said Abdulmutallab was initially interrogated without Miranda rights, but later was given those rights at the suggestion of the Justice Department.”

I couldn't write a better script for political disaster for dems. They really believe we all worried about terrorists rights. I have a democrat friend who told me this was crazy to give them these rights.
I am confident Obama will have huge political road blocks till this November, and likely worse after.
Obama and Holder did that’s who.
Yes, yes, yes!!! That is exactly the question. Obama said the buck stops with him.
Did Obama know the suspect was going to be Mirandized? Did Obama approve the suspect having the right to remain silent? This is hugh and series!!!!
In a letter to Attorney General Eric Holder, Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.), wants to know who “made the decision to treat Umar Abdulmutallab as a criminal suspect, entitled to Miranda warnings and the right to counsel, rather than an unprivileged enemy belligerent subject to military detention.”
It's Holder.
“was informed of his Miranda right to remain silent”
But if he didn’t have that right, telling him that he did, did not confer it apon him.
Simple as that.
Hugh wedgie issue.
Except in the bizarro world of Obama and Holder’s DOJ
Q:How many Channels will carry this information on tonight’s “news” casts?
A:Fox and .....
Having the right to remain silent conferred upon a terrorist when there could be an ongoing plot to mass murder, is bizarre and indefensile by any other than the extra chromosome lefties. Huge wedge issue.
I wouldn't want to be him when Miranda and her husband get through with him.
Will they get an answer?
