This will help tourism won't it?

[RummyChick]

The jurors will be scared...could very well end up dead.

[expatpat]

The trial will be moved out of NYC, just as the OKC bombing trial was moved out of OKC.

[AngelesCrestHighway]

Gilligan pulled a good one this time! Instead of a military trial at GITMO where it was logical to prosecute them, Obango
has given the terrorist a New York stage trial to vent and stoke all the hatred radical Muslims have for America.
If just one American civilian is killed during this farce he and his hacks should end up on trial for murder!....

[DesertRhino]

No no no,, im sure it’s a wise new policy of Eric Holder to try terrorists at the scene of the crime. Now, i wonder if we will see Major Hassan put on trial at Fort Hood, 1000 yards away from the place he shot up, with a jury of enlisted soldiers?

[4rcane]

Something I noticed about Obama, he defers tough decision. He can never make up his mind on anything.

[Stentor]

Calhoun.. I mean Holder is in charge. Everybody is safe.

[PeterPrinciple]

Folks, take a deep breath. Not my best plan of action but there is always good and bad. Shining the light on the terrorists action in public forum will have some interesting ramifications.................

President Obama ducked responsibility by simply calling it a "prosecutorial" decision.

All he has to say is, "Holder made a mistake and I'm overruling him.

Should there be, and I pray there won't, a terrorist attack in NYC and people die, their blood will be on Obama's hands, and he won't be able to wash it off.

In an earlier posting I speculated KSM is being sent to NYC for two purposes:

1. To allow Obama to bash Bush one more time for waterboarding KSM.

2. To deflect attention from Obama’s failures—cap and trade, healthcare, and stimulus.

Now I would add a third reason:

3. To funnel Federal dollars to NYC. Already Schumer is requesting $75 million to pay for added security. How many more Federal dollars are going to be funneled underground to NYC has not been reported yet. This scam is a full employment act for NYC. Who needs tourists when perhaps billions of Federal dollars are sent to NYC to pay for the KSM kangaroo court.

I’d love to take our youngest son to NYC, but I certainly wouldn’t do it while that trial is going on!

[Kakaze]

Holder said if KSM, is not convicted, they will arrest him as a enemy combatant.........what the hell, if that is the case no civilian action should have ever been taken.

This is nothing more than bread and circus.

Since President Bush is the one who they really want to put on trial maybe they should move it to TX.

[Doc Savage]

Prepare yourselves. When the terrorist strike New York, exactly how will the deaths of innocent people then be blamed NOT ON OBAMA OR HOLDER, but on Bush and Cheney.

Wait for it,....wait for it,...wait for it!

[freekitty]

Maybe the mayor can bus them in.

[Mac from Cleveland]

Yeah, and even after going through the hell of 9/11—they turned out in droves in NYC to vote for a quasi-Muslim, anti-American scumbag, whose MINISTER said the US’s chickens came home to roost on 9/11/01, not to mention BO’s buddy/ghostwriter Ayers, who, by coincidence in the NYT of Sept 11, 2001 was quoted as saying he wished he and his band of scumbag terrorists “didn’t do more” in their attempted 1960s terrorism.

Yet they still worshipped at BOs altar, and the crack troops at the New York Times were busy digging into whether or not Joe the Plumber cheated on a spelling test in 3rd grade, or chasing down a rumor that Sarah Palin might have passed gas at a slumber party when she was 11.

Hey NYC-you’re in good hands now—the hands YOU picked, overwhelmingly, to protect you. How’s that workin’ for ya?

[Dilbert56]

What really rankles is that both 0bama and Holder have said the trial is a formality - that a guilty verdict is inevitable. So it's not a vidication of our legal system, triumph of the rule of Law or any of that crap.
