2508.\\ Miranda Rights For Bin Laden

I may have my issues with Senator Graham (some of which I have told him in person on various flights home to Greenville), but in this clip he simply destroys the AG by using his own logic against him. One thing I would ask, however, is how many phone books is Lindsey Graham sitting on?

2500.\\ Holding Holder Accountable

My Alma Mater finally joins the ranks of the right thinking. The Dean Emeritus of the BU School of Law penned an article in which he points out the inherent danger of allowing KSM to be tried as if he were a common criminal.

Put one more up on the board under 'Lesson Not Learned' for the Obama Administration.

The most chilling part of the discussion, which I hadn't even considered (stressed and obsessed as I was with the granting of US Constitutional Rights to an unlawful combatant and a terrorist while I, a legal immigrant, sit without the same Rights), is the notion that 9/11 was in part successful because of the intelligence al-Qaeda obtained from the trial of the 1993 WTC Bomber in regular court. Doesn't this just seem to set up the obvious question of whether or not we're helping some other group plan another attack against us by lifting our kimono?

****UPDATE
And Thomas Sowell weighs in with his usual thoughtful take on the situation.

2451.\\ Go Patriot Act!

Sweet justice for more than just Zazi. If anything validated the last guy's efforts in the office, this does.

I wonder how many other events were or will be thwarted thanks to the Patriot Act and the efforts of the Bush team?

I wonder if Barry will have the balls to renew the Act's key provisions. I know he could never bring himself to admit that George was right. He thanked Ray Kelly for stopping the attacks. He should have called Crawford and thanked George too.

In the meantime, don't expect to see or hear any of this in the rest of the Media.

2419.\\ So the Gitmo Closure is Going Well

Now the Dems are blocking the closure of Gitmo

That whole 'change agenda' thing doesn't seem to be going so well. Except, you know, where placing Americans in danger is the goal (i.e. canceling Missile Defense, F22 Raptor).

Oh the irony.

2411.\\ Three Cheers For The Three Amigos!

I have always liked all three of them. My own Senator the least if I'm honest. But this article is a seminal piece.

The bit that seals the deal for me? "The U.S. walked away from Afghanistan once before, following the Soviet collapse. The result was 9/11. We must not make that mistake again."

Hear hear.

2385.\\ Holder Versus American Patriots

Ralph Peters does his usual job of verbally stripping his opponents of any philosophical legitimacy.

I like that he's framed the attack on American security not as a policy decision but as an ideological purge of the third world type. It is an interesting, but very subtle twist on this argument that resonates with me because I firmly believe that he's absolutely correct.

Dangerous times, my friends. Stay thirsty.

**** UPDATE:
Reading some of the comments. Didn't realize Eric Holder worked for Janet Reno and was involved in Ruby Ridge and Waco. Makes total sense that he'd seek to undermine our Liberty.

2384.\\ Bending Over (Backwards)

Go ahead and read this, now. Completely agree with the article. In fact, I suggest we launch an investigation into World War II abuses committed by American GIs against Nazis. Might make sense in the bizarro world we live in today.

Point to remember for the rest of the day:

"So many 'rights' have been conjured up out of thin air that many people seem unaware that rights and obligations derive from explicit laws, not from politically correct pieties. If you don't meet the terms of the Geneva Convention, then the Geneva Convention doesn't protect you. If you are not an American citizen, then the rights guaranteed to American citizens do not apply to you."

Amen brother.

2383.\\ Brown and Quadafi and Sex and Oil

Okay, no sex. But in the NY Daily News today, an Editorial basically lays out the absolute criminality of what's gone on with the release of the Lockerbie terrorist in exchange for Libyan oil.

Phrase of the day:

"Theirs has been a discreet relationship, conducted in private and lubricated by oil, an affair of convenience between a madman with blood on his hands, and a craven hypocrite with a price tag."

A craven hypocrite. God I love the English language.

I wonder what all those ribbons are for?

2370.\\ Watch Out Mr. Terrorist!

As if ignoring the release of a convicted Libyan mass murderer wasn't enough, now this absurdity.

That's right, we might, just might, do something to you that the State of California has identified to be potentially dangerous to pregnant mothers and contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer in monkeys.

Now, tell us who masterminded the Cole bombing or you might get cancer in a few years!
