CHICAGO -- A Detroit congressman visited Tuesday the jailed co-founder of an Islamic charity that was closed down as part of the terrorism investigation, and expressed doubts concerning his continued detention.

"There does not on the surface seem to be any reason why he should not be released on his own recognizance," Democratic U.S. Rep. John Conyers told a rally outside Chicago's Metropolitan Correctional Center.

Maybe he should get the same "due process" the young man that fell out of the helicopter on Monday received.

Let's see, how many bullets would that be?

Articles like this one make me sick to my stomach.

I moved out of Detroit in 1960. Had I stayed, Conyers would have been my congressman. Now I live in Palm Beach County. I'm still better off.

"There does not on the surface seem to be any reason why he should not be released on his own recognizance," Democratic U.S. Rep. John Conyers told a rally outside Chicago's Metropolitan Correctional Center. --SNIP -- Conyers said that Haddad "is not getting due process. He has at times been denied access to his lawyer." He stopped short of calling for his release.

Is this crappy reporting? I'm completely confused....Does Conyers want the guy released or not?

This would be the same county whose democratic illiterates held the country hostage from Election Day to mid December? The same county represented by that creature Wexler? Yeah,you're better off.

Everything I have heard in local and national media claims that Conyers wants him to be let go.
He claims there is no reason to hold him, HELLO CONYERS, HIS VISA IS EXPIRED!!

"Rabih Haddad, 41, of Ann Arbor, Mich., has been held for overstaying his visa since his arrest Dec. 14, ..."

He's in violation of Immigration Laws. And for a "Lawmaker" to suggest he be released is simply unbelievable!
