The ACLU just had an orgasm.

Al Quida is laughing their ass off.  Hell, so am I.  What can you do but laugh.

Indeed, Stevens actually said we can hold them in club Gitmo until the end of hostilities since they are POWs.  He left us a way out.

Fine with me.  Rot terrorists - no way Bush tries them in American courts.  Imagine how hard it would be for Ramsey Clark to have to divide his time between Sadaam's trial and all the terrorists who demand trials.  You can't expect Ramsey to have to commute clear across the world.  Hehe

beats me - I figured the people killed in the WTC were  presumed innocent before Al Quida murdered them.

Most of us couldn't care less about the "rights" of a bunch of blood sucking terrorists.  Like I said, Osama's laughing his ass off right now.

However, watching the Dems wet all over themselves with joy at this decision is the best thing that could have happened to the Republicans in November.  This has to be a Rove plot for sure.  I noticed Nancy Pelosi has called this decision a "triumph".  You'd think a political party that had credbility troubles on an issue like national security would be smarter than that.  However, it's been said that Nancy's not the sharpest tool in the shed.  Actually, I don't think it's lack of smarts.  I think it's just that she's spent so much time in San Fransisco, she wouldn't recognize mainstream if it bit her in the butt.

Citizen,

Wrong place at the wrong time?  Yeah, that's it.  They were just spending quality time with their kids in the park when the mean ol US military came along out of nowhere and cuffed em for nothing.

Hey Dems, run on justice for terrorists in November.  It's a winner.  LMAO

No, my NATION is more important than the terrorists.

Interesting that you should mention the Red Cross.  Yeah, the very organization that asked us to cover up the windows into the Gitmo cells so the Prisoners" could "have their" privacy"  Three promptly used their privacy to hang themselves.  Gee, damned if you do and damned if you don't.  Oh well.

As far as abiding by conventions,  since when did Al Quida become a signee of the Geneva Conventions?  Certainly not with this Supreme Court decision since that part of Stevens opinion didn't get a majority to sign on.

Nope, let them rot in prison.  We should get around to trying them around 2030.  I hope Turbin Dirbin and the rest of the Dems in Congress throw a fit about it.  Then we can have the American people make a clear choice on what they truly believe is "the right thing to do".

Actually, nothing will change.  The Congress will now introduce legislation providing  the president with the authority to do what he wanted to do in the first place - namely, set up military tribunals to try and punish the Gitmo 400.  Specter (a definite RINO and definitely no conservative) actually introduced such legislation tonight.

Oh, the left will scream bloody murder about trampling on the Geneva Convention and such rot.  Barbara Boxer will have her usual meltdown.  However the ACLU and left in general will not get to experience their little wet dream of Ramsey Clark tying up terrorist cases in federal courts for years and years or, better yet, some ambulance chaser llike John Edwards suing the government on behalf of Abdul or Mohammed and making these butchers rich on taxpayer money.

I'm actually very anxious to see if Feingold and company are dumb enough to oppose such legislation.  Based on past actions, I have little doubt that they are.

Rove is indeed an evil genius, but he could never pull it off without the cooperation of the Democrats in Congress.  Poor dumb leftoids, they just can't help themselves.  At least their opposition will play well in the San Francisco Bay Area, Madison, Wisconsin, and Boston.  Oh well, Rove can't worry about that, too busy winning elections.
