Kerry, whose convention speech emphasized national security and foreign policy, said in an interview with The Associated Press that he would put Osama bin Laden on trial in U.S. courts.

hanoi john is ANTI-DEATH PENALTY and plans a moratorium on the Federal death penalty. Which means WE the taxSERFS will have to foot the bill for him for the rest of his life.

AND the state level death penalties will also get the kabosh put on them by his black robe tyrants...stroke of the pen, law of the land!

Which is why there was NO talk of capital punishment in his plank, and gun control wasn't mentioned either.

hanoi john defended dukakis' furlough program from the GOP attack after willie horton was released onto the public. hanoi john was in the senate then.

That raises one simple question: Senator Kerry, if OBL were tried in the US, would you support asking the jury for the death penalty?
