Obama Treating Bomber as Criminal Instead of Terrorist
So we decided to let Abdulmutallab lawyer up, and not talk to us, huh? Cool. So what if he initially said that there were 25 others just like him training in Yemen to blow us up? So what if there are solid reports that he had an accomplice in Amsterdam who helped him evade normal passport control? So what if we’re now learning that there was a similar attempt to blow up an airliner last month? We can’t treat him as an enemy combatant because BusHitler did that kind of thing (see Jose Padilla), and we’ve declared an end to the pretended “War on Terror” and are closing the stalag at Guantanamo.
And, really, what’s the big deal about the occasional “man-caused disaster” anyway? A few hundred American deaths are a small price to pay for all that Hollywood love and Nobel prizes that we get by maintaining an attitude of peace. And anyway, our system of ignoring terror is working. If we ignore it long enough, it’ll go away. You’ll see. It’s definitely not a big enough deal to cut short a Hawaiian vacation. Don’t worry — be happy.

Did you expect anything less? Holden set the precedent with KSM. Obama and his administration are going to get us all killed over their blind ideology. He doesn't want to offend or upset the Islam nations.
Well, guess what, Barry? They're already upset with us over the simple fact that we exist. Maybe its as you perceive, that we are not at war with anybody, but you know what? They are at war with us. This was a planned act of wartime aggression, and the aggressor should be interrogated as a war criminal, detained in a military prison, and tried in a military tribunal.
If all this is too much, causes you to interupt a golf came, cut short your Hawaiian vacation (and we understand that you're tired), jet back to Washington and put on a tie, that comes with the job you wanted so badly.
Hey, I've got an idea! Why don't you resign?
Posted just above is a little of the reaction to all of this not just from Dick Cheney but also from lefties like Maureen Dowd and the New York Daily News.
When Janet Incompetano started in with the "man-caused disasters" dreck and issued that report about how conservative Republicans and military veterans were the new Al-Qaeda (that's SOOOO early 1990's, dontcha know) earlier this year, you knew it was a matter of time before two things would happen.
First, that lack of focus on an implacable enemy would come back to haunt the Obama administration. And second, when the chickens came home to roost – which in my opinion has NOT fully occurred; we will get hit again and again by an emboldened enemy – the American people are going to remember the excesses and idiocy of the CIA interrogation affair, the idea of bringing KSM to New York for trial, the "man-caused disasters" and the "right-wing extremist" terror memo.
