When they say military tribunal, do they mean theirs, or ours?

You got precisely what Bush could rig up, and no more. Whoever believed that this entire Gitmo game was going to dish out appropriate or even inappropriate justice....was kidding themselves. This was a Rummy and Cheney episode that just didn’t have much thinking tied to it....and now is the end result. As the months roll by, and you figure the cost of this, and the limited amount of intelligence they really gained (especially from the 4th grade drop-out that we just sentenced)...then we’ll sit back and have a good laugh.

To be truthful here...I don’t blame any of the officers now involved. They have to manage with a prosecution that used torture, and then try to remedy this into their entire case, and sentence. If any guy gets more than a ten-year sentence...it’ll surprise me. I think this will be the max you see handed out.
