It's also a potential equal protection problem as well given that there is a lot of sentiment in the federal courts to make foreign terrorists be subject to the same laws and procedures as citizens. If there is a federal moratorium on the DP for nonterrorists, it stands to reason that this would be unjust and unconstitutional.

Naturally, the mediots will not ask al Qerry about it.

I'd not thought about the equal protection end. His thinking is so twisted and illogical I can only shake my head in wonder. There is NO difference between a terrorist who kills and an non-terrorist serial killer who kills.

It floored me when his crook of a brother said on the film that hanoi john prosecuted WHITE COLLAR crime. I called his HQ and asked about his stance on the DP. His underling that answered the phone said Sen kerry as a prosecutor put away criminals for life.......white collar criminals may get a few years but they sure don't get LIFE. He gave me the impression that the criminals hanoi john put away were violent criminals.

This is a very sore issue with me as I am the mom of a murdered child, whose killer is now free to walk the streets because liberal do gooders can't be bothered to build more prisons or execute them in a reasonable time frame. My son's killer got 20 years in a plea bargain, I had to fight 6 parole hearings to get 14.5 years of that sentence.
