in America assume a man is innocent before proven guilty... Yet Obama and Holder assure Americans that KSM will be found guilty... KSM was willing to plead guilty in a military court and Holder still opted for civil trail...
In seems Obama has stacked the deck, making only an innocent verdict consistent with RULE of LAW.. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704888404574547933018090304.html >>> "Failure is not an option"? Is Eric Holder attorney general of the United >>> States or some unctuous motivational speaker? Kohl's question is highly pertinent, and Holder simply evaded it. No one is suggesting that failure to win and sustain a conviction is an "option," but it is a contingency for which it is shocking that the administration is, or at least claims to be, unprepared. Further, Obama's and Holder's assurances that KSM will be convicted (and, according to the president, "put to death") make a mockery of due process. Nothing is more fundamental to America's criminal justice system than the presumption of innocence, and if terrorist detainees are to be treated as criminal defendants, they are entitled to that presumption. For the sake of political expediency, Obama and Holder are refusing even to make a pretense of respect for due process. If KSM & Co. are convicted and put to death, America's critics and enemies will point to Obama and Holder's assurances in arguing that the defendants were subjected to sham justice. Nice work restoring America's moral standing, Mr. President. -- Thanks for being part of "PoliticalForum" at Google Groups.
