And liberals will have to do a mighty dance around the truth....again.  Seems so obvious to even a preschooler that if one simply sticks to the truth...the facts...and Constitutional rules and regulations...there is no need to remember what lies you've told, covered, or omitted in favor of furthering your own lies and hidden agendas.  Seems obvious.  You have to have a brain disorder not to see it...enter the liberal.

That's the guy who went after Clinton over the Paula Jones case.

Too bad Grahamnesty refuses to recognize there is a "fundamental difference" between illegal and legal immigration.

Too bad Sen. Graham isn't a conservative.  He's got a sharp mind.

LYDSEXICS UNTIE!

Have you ever consider another possible explanation for Obama/Holders action in trying these people in civilian courts?  Is it possible that Obama just does not want to be the president that orders his execution ?  Could it be that he is afraid it will affect his image in the muslim world?  Is it possible that if KSM's action had religious sanction, Obama's execution of him might have some religious implications?

I am reaching but Holder is NOT incompetent.  Yet his actions in almost all respects with regard to this matter are STUPID.

Mr. Holder welcome to the USA, you 've just encountered..open mouth insert foot , now bite it off like a man..

NPR...I'll be darned!

Anyway...like I said somewhere a couple of places today, if you get the chance watch a repeat of this, I caught the first three hours this morning on Fox Streaming....anyway, C-SPAN will most likely repeat it all as well, which there was some I missed myself.

It was well worth it, Graham, Kyl and Sessions as well were all good, I could have hugged Little Lindsey for a change.

It was disappointing something this important to our nation wasn't televised during the day...as if there was any major breaking news elsewhere...to me this is the utmost of importance...the news networks are ill as far as I am concerned, thank goodness for the internet.

nor is he a brilliant attorney.

He is the same as the Jihadist Hassan in that they were both promoted due to their minority  status.

Thet are the "Peter Principal" personified.

OMG, these guys are the "alleged" attorney and  as CNN would say, the "alleged" shooter!

He was not stumped, he was  non-plussed!

"The bureaucracy is growing to meet the needs of the growing bureaucracy"

way to go Lindsey Graham...I hope we see more of this from him.

Holder had his head handed to him today. He was so bad, he is just painful to watch in this...I found myself wondering if he did any prep work for this appearance today...What kind of questions did he think he would be asked? Holder seemed totally unprepared for what he faced. He had the "deer in the headlights" look off and on throughout, and how many times did he stumble and bluff his way through his answers?

Graham and Co. were great, and they didn't hold back (thank heavens). This should be required viewing for anyone in this country who is concerned about having the terror trials in NYC (or anywhere else in the US). Today showed unequivocally that this administration hasn't thought this through, and has no clue what they are doing.

Erased plenty of doubt that I'd want Graham for a lawyer, and reinforced plenty that I'd ever want Holder defending me.

Thanks for posting this.

This is the guy who is tough enough to lead prosecution of our enemies in the GWOT.

...who is now working in the public sector, although said friend is not part of the Justice Department.

To be fair, my friend believes, as I do, that Obama is not his own man, and that his strings are being manipulated by others who have an agenda that is less than conducive to the continued freedom and prosperity of America as we know it.

I had nearly an hour-long telephone conversation with said friend today, during which this person laid down the exact reasons they believe these trials were moved to New York, and it is not solely because the far left wants to use these trials to go after Bush, thus aiding our enemies in this war, although that is part of it.

My friend believes that Obama's handlers are attempting to use these trials to set certain constitutionally contradictory precedents that, if adhered to by courts in future cases, will eventually result in the destruction of our criminal justice system as it currently exists.

After hearing my friend out, I totally agreed with this assessment, as I was introduced to legal minefields that are present in this matter that I didn't even know existed.

Our only hope to stop this insanity is that the repubs get sufficient control of the House next November to start seriously probing not only Barack Hussein Obama, but this boob of an affirmative action appointee Eric Holder.

Our elected representatives have failed us.  

Maybe the message from NPR is that they will accurately report on Republicans who routinely sell out.

He has no basis for a legal decision like this and obviously didn't even bother to research it. The only reason to try them as criminals is political and ideological. For some bizzare reason the liberal/progressive element look at "terrorist" as a "higher" and "more noble" description than criminal. With this political decision they are trying to send the message that we concider them to be "only common criminals".

The unintended consequences of this decision will, I hope, not be as catastrophic as they could be and as they were from the first terrorist act against the US and the World Trade Centers in 1993. That was also treated as a criminal act and sent the message to the perpetrators that we were "asleep at the switch" and not serious about our national security. GOD forbid that we get a liberal democrat as a judge who throws out all the evidence against the defendants because, as Sen. Graham brings up, they were not Mirandized.

Throw 'da bums out!!!

This means that when they finally find OBL, they'll shoot him right between the eyes and then mirandize him!

Since government is coercion, politics is largely the exercise of deception regarding the intended use of coercion - George Orwell

Graham is absolutely correct in identifying the fatal flaw of Obama & Holder's plan to try KSM or OBL for that matter in criminal court.  However, everyone here assumes these two are legal boobs or incompetent lawyers, that would be a mistake IF there were another agenda.  Let's speculate for a moment that Obama and Holder are NOT incompetent boobs but in fact devious manipulators.  I submit the point of trying KSM in a civilian court is to overcome technical legal decisions such as legal representation and indefinite detention without trial.  In order not to have the case thrown out in civilian court at this point in the game, certain Constitutional guarantees must be suspended.  IF in order to find KSM guilty in a civilian criminal court the precedent is set to suspend Constitutional rights then ANYONE accused of terrorism would also be subject to the same expedited rules of procedure. 

DID NOT Holder himself imply even IF KSM were acquitted, he would spend the rest of his life in jail????  Connect the dots folks, Obama and Holder are planning to create politically motivated trials under the guise of terrorist accusations.  These to evil men are intending to cause this country to descend into darkness.  Once the country is terrorized by accusations and arrests their grip on power will be final.
