Now they’re talking about moving the trials to Western PA (Pittsburgh most likely) or Washington DC. Never mind the obvious danger to us all where these civilian trials are going to be held — just who is going to pay for the extra security? It already looks like the Obama administration is not going to authorize any expenditure or very little expenditure on security. But even if there will be federal monies, who is paying for this? Yup...we the taxpayers. A trial before a military tribunal would be a helluva lot cheaper and involve a lot less expense to already strapped states and local government entities.
This administration is not only incompetent; it is mentally ill.
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Although the military charges have been withdrawn, they can also be re-introduced.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!
