The instinct of the bow…

I can’t wait to hear Robert Gibbs’ explanation for  this display —  a sudden collapse of  the presidential back muscles,  perhaps?

The spin begins…    And a West Point graduate delivers a pithy verdict…  while Thomas Lifson delivers  more photos regarding the huge faux pas of His Oneness.

A minor body beneath the bus…

This  little tidbit was mostly lost amid the news that the 9/11 co-conspirators would be tried in our civilian judicial system.   It’s very convenient to blame Craig for “mishandling” the Gitmo closure.   Bob Bauer,  who will take over Craig’s duties,  is married to Mao-lover Anita Dunn,  so expect more of thew same.   But as Tevi Troy  points out at The Corner,  the result is more likely to be a partisan enabler than a brake.    I think that’s precisely why Obama chose him, and that’s not good for either the country or the Constitution.

By the way,  did you notice that only FOX mentioned that such a monumental decision is announced by the president,  not the attorney general?   His Oneness made sure to be out of the country and to have Holder announce this perfidious plan to grant these killers the same constitutional rights Americans have in order to distance himself from it,  but is there anyone who believes Obama didn’t tell Holder what conclusion to come to?

Treason, not justice…

Start by reading  the letter sent to His Oneness November 9th,  then add your signature to the list,  which will be updated periodically and sent to the White House.

Next,  read this excerpt from Andy McCarthy’s book,   Willful Blindness,  in light of the treasonous  decisions made on where to try the 9/11 conspirators.

And then read Andy’s  next post,  which points out this decision is just another means of attacking the Bush Administration and anyone else who takes terrorism seriously.    It will be a doorway for lefties everywhere to file criminal charges against in European courts and the ICC,  and will also provide a huge platform for the terrorists.    Even worse,   the vast amounts of intelligence  —  data, means and personnel  —  which the courts will force the government to give to the defendants will make it easier for their brethren to kill us.

I nearly spewed out my coffee when AG Eric Holder claimed politics had been taken out of this decision.    This is PURE politics, NOTHING else.    It is insanely dangerous,  and it is entirely unnecessary.   All five jihadists,  led by mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed,  wanted to plead guilty to the military commissions.    The only reason to disallow that is to achieve what His Oneness wants while allowing him to claim he has no responsibility for the prosecutions or the consequences.

I’ll be posting more on this,  but for now,  get ready to call your Congress critters,  the White House,  and the Justice Department.    We still have time to stop this,  but we must act swiftly.
