Liberals Never Learn

After the debacle of the trial of Zacarias Moussaoui's any one who was paying attention knows that a criminal trial for a terrorists is a bad idea. Moussaoui turned his trial into a circus When we tried "the blind sheik" we spent millions, gave a maniac a platform to spew his venom and released to the world the names of all the terrorists we knew about. On that list was Usama bin Laden and I'm sure he appreciated the "heads up" that we provided.


Our judicial system only works if all parties have some skin in the game. When you have a defendant who does not care if he is convicted he can really throw a wrench into the works. When Khalid Sheik Mohammed's was captured in Pakistan he said he would not tell us anything "until he arrived in New York and had an attorney". The Bush Administration had the good sense to not send him to New York. Instead, we splashed some water in his face and he sang like a canary. We got a lot of good information from KSM that allowed us to capture other terrorists and save innocent lives.

The Obama Administration lacks that "good sense". Egg-headed intellectual types are notorious for having high minded ideas that NEVER work well in the real world. KSM will use this opportunity to put the United States on trial and terrorists don't play fair. KSM will lie, cheat and do anything he can come up with to use the world stage Eric Holder has given him. The trial could take years and the expense will be unprecedented. New York will be more of a target for terrorists then ever.

This is the worst plan the Obama Administration has come up with yet.
