That was my point - but of course, you said it much better than I - great post!
Add to that Holder’s statement that KSM won’t be released even if acquitted. Maybe he wants to taint the jury pool, if not America has some really dumb lawyers in high places.
Perfect illustration of the O Admin “upholding American values” — they are going to be prosecutor, judge, jury and executioner in a Kangaroo Court.
Makes ya proud!
Ummm...can you tell us to whom you are referring? Your statement is open to interpretation.
1) Obama and his crew want to try KSM in civilian court.
2) Obama is making it impossible to secure a conviction in civilian court by so publicly prejudging the case.
It has to be assumed Obama and company want KSM to walk.
To prevent such a potential for undermining would seem to be better than to be faced with such a possibility.
Someone please explain to me. As I understand, the jury will decide the sentence if he is convicted. What if the jury decided life in prison?
Move it to Pittsburgh???? I guess this is our - no, correction - Ravenstahl’s payback for letting Obama hold the G20 conference here last fall.
Read that Zer0 was offering $200,000,000 to any community willing to take on this idiocy.
Also read that Congress may very well reject any funding at all for the trial.
Although the military charges have been withdrawn, they can also be re-introduced.
HELLO Gitmo!
How can you have a supposedly fair trial if the verdict is predeterminined? The Obama admin does and says so many illogical things it’s hard to keep track of them.
Talk about jury influence. If I were the Sheik’s attorney,
I would be preparing an appeal already — you do not publicly say stuff like this immediately before a trial. He could be liable for jury tampering.
These statements by Gibbs and Obama himself about executing KSM are asinine. If KSM is tried in a US court these statements could well be used by his defense to show he cannot get a fair trial when even the President has publicly said he was guilty and that jurors would be tainted if they had heard this.
....wonder what libs are going to do when KSM is found innocent and walks out of court a free man.
Pronouncing him “guilty” now defeats the purpose of a “fair” trial by an “impartial” jury.
The funny part is when KSM is found innocent, he’ll be able to sue CNN and the President of the US for that matter for slander/libel.
Well maybe they are saying such things so the case will be thrown out and let him go?
Attaway to go, Baghdad Bob. You just tainted the jury pool everywhere and gave the dirtbag lawyers grounds for appeal. They are going way overboard to throw this case.
My prediction is KSM gets off on a technicality.
Barry is worse than a fool - he is an enemy of my country - if there isn’t strong resistance in Congress to stop him by the Republicans, then we will see that they are no better than evil co-conspirators. It will really be up to the People then.
Bingo - and the Moron State Media will be right there to help with the distraction.
Hasn’t KSM proven to be a valuable intelligence asset (after waterboarding)?
The Administration has given KSM and his buddies Constitutional rights that include the PRESUMPTION OF INNOCENCE! Way to go Gibbs!
If they get a Civilian trial, they will probably be freed. Thank you Gibbs and Obama... the two stupidest people who ever lived.
