The common sense solution is to kill a terrorist enemy combatant no matter what the citizenship. American safety first. Herb’s been drifting a little.

And the same holds when it’s the “Tea Party terrorists?”

Homophobic Christian enemy combatants of tolerance?

Cain is right on this. Yes, "American safety first" but we've now lost the chance for intensive interrogation to possibly gain information that would save many American lives.

Does no one remember John Walker Lindh aka Johnny Jihad? We didn't execute him 10 years ago, although many wanted it done. That, of course, was during W's administration. As an American citizen, he was entitled to and got his day in court. He was tried, sentenced and could get out as early as 2019. We may not be happy with that, but this is still America.
