Thankyou jumpin jim jeffords.

If your entire effort depends on one horse, you have bigger problems than you think.

Jeffords was never a Republican anyway and being a Republican nowadays doesn't mean a damn thing anyway. They have caved into or adopted most of the liberals plans.

'easily manipulated'? As if Judges are exempt from this category?

I suppose the 'donning' of black robes, changes people instantly to some sort of 'God-Like fashion.'

Conyers and his Socialist Democrat buddies are only a half step behind these Arab Barbaric Spies who will be tried in our country and who are still throughout our Society.

People who intend harm to our citizens,and our country, like the WTC Bombing do not deserve equal Protection.

. That wouldn't bother Conyers, He's too busy making sure People like Clinton can sell the country out.

I think President Bush has got it right and we don't need any comments from the likes of Conyers and his Socialist Buddies in the Democrat party.

The Progressive Caucus/Democratic Socialists of America crowd strikes again. Good, as always, to know whose side they're on.

Mr. Conyers, you are either with us or you are with the terrorists.

Decide.

What you said!... Except, I would add that Conyers ought to have his citizenship revoke and be 'exported' to the Moon, to be kept company by Jackson-Fleas and Maxine Dirtwaters.

Mr. Conyers, you are either with us or you are with the terrorists.

That should not come at the expense of civil liberties, however. I agree with the "spirit" of Conyer's "concern" for our civil liberties. However, given his unparralled record of promoting laws designed to destroy the power of the individual, I am more than a little wary of his true motives. What is the Arab population like in his district...

The purpose he nailed. However, it is the democratic form of government that is to blame. If we had a limited in power republic confederation then we wouldn't be at the point where I have to admit a Democrat is doing the right thing.

I think you ought to read post 21 by Magnum44. He obviously understands the purpose and the process being implemented. I'm not sure you understand it, at least your post doesn't imply that you do. Respectfully.....GG

No, but most judges, and particularly military judges, are professionals, they are well versed in the law; they do not let shifty lawyers misguide them, and they understand the importance of the role that they fill in both administering justice, and in maintaining the public faith in the justice system through proper adminstration of justice.

But mostly, the military justice system is not backlogged with three years of case load and other delays that would make a mockery of justice to these terrorist, and in fact does make a mockery of justice in our criminal system.

The 4th amendment isn't going to mean squat if we all wind up dead because we've tied our own hands behind our backs. There has to be room for applying reason.

Conyers is only interested in disrupting the country, and personal gain.

He has no interest in representing the people, he proved that in every attempt he made in derailing the impeachment proceedings!

Peolple have this knee jerk reaction that anything "military" is by definition unfair.

Its all the media 'indoctrination' and the result of an failing education system that no longer teaches people to reason for themselves.
