Role of ACLU Decisive in Moving KSM Trial to New York

Pajamas Media  "Can you imagine if the case of the mastermind of 9/11 was dismissed? If this happens, make sure to thank the ACLU. They were the culprits behind closed doors working to make this a reality. The blood of innocents murdered in the future by those aspiring Islamist killers who will become emboldened by our manifest lack of will and strength will be on their hands.  A massive public outcry needs to take place — and this dangerous agenda being pushed on the country needs to be reversed."

Bowing to ‘World Opinion’/ Secrecy in warfare is a matter of life and death.

By Thomas Sowell    "How many Americans may pay with their lives for the intelligence secrets and methods that can be forced to be disclosed to al-Qaeda was not mentioned. Nor was there mention of how many foreign nations and individuals whose cooperation with us in the War on Terror have been involved in countering al-Qaeda — nor how many foreign nations and individuals will have to think twice now, before cooperating with us again, when their role can be revealed in court to our enemies, who can exact revenge on them."...."As a private citizen, Barack Obama has a right to make as big a jackass of himself as he wants to. But, as president of the United States, his actions not only denigrate a nation that other nations rely on for survival, but raise questions about how reliable our judgment and resolve are — which in turn raises questions about whether those nations will consider themselves better off to make the best deal they can with our enemies."

Political Cartoons by Michael Ramirez

KSM TRIAL WATCH BEGINS

Boortz  "Oh ... by the way. You do know that KSL was never read his Miranda Rights, don't you? How much evidence is going to be thrown out because this Islamic murderer didn't have his right to counsel when he was first captured?"

WORSE THAN I IMAGINED

Boortz  "Maybe I'm just dreaming of a country where voters have to exhibit a modicum of intelligence before they're allowed to cast votes. And don't give me that "right to vote" nonsense. The right doesn't exist in federal elections. Someday, when the final history of our Republic is written, we're going to understand the long-term consequences of opening the polls to people without a clue."

Commie Che Supporting Goons Beat Tea Party Protesters In Florida

Gateway Pundit    "One of the men attacked is 62 years old. Dave Caulkett of FLIMEN (Floridians for Immigration Enforcement) is assaulted and then kicked in the face while he is down. The other camera man from the Tea Party is hit with several signs. Those attacking the Americans that oppose Amnesty for illegal aliens were organized by ANSWER Florida."

Hidden land mines in health care reform bill

Rick Moran "This is in addition to the ticking time bombs in plain view I suppose. Nevertheless, they make a good point about what happens when the American people start to realize some of the bill's drawbacks:"

Obama retreats on climate change

Denver Post "... comments by Obama and fellow leaders at a hastily arranged breakfast meeting here on the sidelines of an Asia-Pacific summit served to put the final nail in any remaining expectations for the December summit."

Morality Without God?

By Marvin Olasky "...Ronald Reagan's logic was that if a hunter sees movement in the forest and doesn't know whether it's a deer or a person, he should not shoot. But [ this Dartmouth professor] suggested in his book Moral Skepticisms (2006) that since we don't know whether abortion is morally wrong, it's unfair for employers to insist that health plans not pay for abortions."

The KSM Trial Will Be an Intelligence Bonanza for al Qaeda

WSJ "Prosecutors will be forced to reveal U.S. intelligence on KSM, the methods and sources for acquiring its information, and his relationships to fellow al Qaeda operatives. The information will enable al Qaeda to drop plans and personnel whose cover is blown. It will enable it to detect our means of intelligence-gathering, and to push forward into areas we know nothing about."

Canada’s healthcare disaster

By Dick Morris "After more than a decade of public healthcare with mandatory coverage, so many Canadian doctors have left the practice and so many young people have entered other fields that Canada ranks 26th of 28 developed nations in its ratio of physicians to population. Once, Canada ranked among the leaders in the number of physicians, but that was before government healthcare drove doctors out of the practice in droves."
