How in the world can these people be tried in a civilian court under our current laws?

Somehow I doubt they were Mirandized when they were captured or had an attorney present during questioning and I don’t think this was the speedy trial the constitution requires.

Oh I forgot this administration rewrites the constitution anytime they think it’s prudent....

Members of the jury had better beware.

Our mistake was to declare a war on terror. That makes these guys POWs and they shouldn’t be tried at all, by either a civilian court or a military board. We’re trying to have it both ways and we blew it.

That said, as long as we’re going to try them anyway, why not try each of the five defendants in a separate city? Spreads the cost around and makes any effort to disrupt the trials five times bigger. I suggest Boston, Chicago, Seattle, Portland (Or) and San Francisco.

The administration's first mistake is to label these men "criminals," as if a terrorist attack and the announced objective of forcibly "Islamisizing" America were the same as robbing a bank.

Patterson dropped a bombshell today when he said the WH had told him SIX MONTHS ago that trying these guys in NYC might be a "possibility." Bambi has been planning this since Day One. He's cool with forcibly Islamisizing America.
