1. About time one of the idiots admitted it has nothing to do with justice.

They just don't want W exposed.

[spanone]

2. ain't that the fucking truth for once

[butterfly77]

3. She was so excited about it..

she and the rest of the republicons are really worried about Bush. Me thinks that it isn't only Bush/Cheney they are worried about..

[glitch]

29. If I thought she'd read history I'd think she was worried about collaborator trials.

But with her it's probably free-floating paranoia.

[ShockediSay]

4. for their families' sake, I hope Bush or Cheney are not planing trips

out of the country.

These war crimes guys can be relentless.

[gratuitous]

5. But if Bush hasn't done anything wrong . . .

Hee, hee, hee.

8. That's the first truthful thing ever to pop out of her caterwauling mouth.

[AspenRose]

10. Second - she said Pat Robertson was wrong for what he said re: Haiti

[foxfeet]

16. I missed that. Creeping honesty, who knew?

[sandnsea]

9. Sometimes I'm as dumb as a box of rocks

I did not see that one at all. But Hasselbeck did.

Ouch.

:blush:

[CatWoman]

12. LOL

11. Ding ding

DUers said that ages ago - they're scared shitless.

[Jeffersons Ghost]

13. K&R!

[WVRICK13]

14. Why Does Anyone Care

what a reality show contestant thinks? What are her credentials?

[CatWoman]

15. her "credentials" are she is a Bush bot

and all of those people think with a single brain.

[Dappleganger]

26. Liz Cheney probably cares! nt

[timeforpeace]

17. And I fear he will be vindicated if public support for torturing KSM is any indication.

[BrklynLiberal]

18. "Unintentionally" is the only way you would ever hear the truth from that twit.

[tex-wyo-dem]

19. The truth shows up in the most unlikely places...

Let's be serious: the GOP has know from day 1 that what they were signing on to was fucking illegal as shit, but there was far too much $$$ at stake for their crony buddies and themselves to say no. Now they're doing everything in their power to cover their ass.

[Yurovsky]

20. and the problem with that is....???

War criminals deserve war crimes tribunals. Not very complicated, even for a blathering idiot like Hasselbeck.

[bridgit]

21. The GOP needs to cut to the chase then bend over and kiss their ass goodbye ~

And that goes double for Hasselbeck http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ek1K6TYssa4&feature=PlayList&p=0C4DE14B6901ECC0&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL&index=21

22. Say what you want about the view, but it is one of the few shows that fosters debate. nt

[bahrbearian]

23. I love that last comment , "how come they can't sit together?"

from the lady sitting between them

[cbdo2007]

24. GOP opposed to laws for fear they may be breaking them....

That's how I read that. They don't like trials when they've broken the law. As long as they aren't convicted of anything they didn't do anything wrong in their minds.

[CanonRay]

25. Now that I can believe

the other arguments never made any sense to me.

[spanone]

27. well, ma'am, that's why i'm 1,000,000,000 percent behind open trials

[Soylent Brice]

28. and he rightly should be. n/t

[B Calm]

30. That's always been obvious..

[fascisthunter]

31. which means even she knows he's responsible

yet she doesn't want him to be held accountable. She's a dirt bag...

[LaPera]

32. The slimy republicans NEVER want the truth to see the light of day....

since they are ALWAYS behind the lies because of their lust for power, greed & hatred.

[KansDem]

33. Good! This will help balance her "Bush didn't want to scare the children" bullshit...

...as her reasoning for Il Duce to sit and do nothing but stare off into space when told the US was being attacked on 9/11.

What a tool and a fool...

[southernyankeebelle]

34. Yes I heard her say that and I was suprised by that comment. I never ever thought that was

on anyones mind. It makes sense now. I kept thinking why everyone was so up in harms over this issue.

[closeupready]

35. What a dumb bimbo she is - glad they have her! She's a useful tool for us.

:rofl:

[Festivito]

36. We can't handle the truth?! Or, is it that Bush and BushCONs can't?

We the people of the United States ... establish justice ...

A formidable statement.

[valerief]

37. Well, we all know that this is what this debate is all about. Open trial

means trouble for the death merchants of the previous administration.

[rschop]

38. What was the Bush administration so afraid of?

The question has been asked, what were these people so afraid of.

Well if you have not figured it out by now here it is, here is exactly what these people are afraid of.

If Khalid Sheik Mohamed is tried in a US civilian court he gets the right to speak out in court and bring evidence into trial. And also he gets the right to cross examine his accusers in open court.

And what explosive evidence will KSM present in court.

THE FACT THAT HE WAS AT THE JANUARY 5-8, 2000 KUALA LUMPUR AL QAEDA PLANNING MEETING, PLANNING BOTH THE ATTACK ON THE USS COLE AND THE WORLD TRADE CENTER TOWERS.

The CIA even had photos taken by the Malaysian intelligence of everyone at that meeting including KSM, and even knew the FBI had a $2,000,000 reward on his head and still let him walk away to carry out both the attack on the USS Cole and the attacks on 9/11.

According to the 9/11 Commission report, the CIA was told on June 12, 2001, that Khalid Sheik Mohamed was organizing a huge attack the CIA had already had been warned about. They were told according to the 9/11 Commission report that KSM was sending many terrorists into the US in the summer of 2001 to link up with other al Qaeda terrorists who were already in the US in order to carry out this attack.

The Philippine intelligence had already told the CIA back in 1995 that one phase of the Bojinka plot, planning by KSM and his nephew, Ramzi Yousef was to hijack many US airliners and crash them into the WTC Towers, the Pentagon and the Capital building and other land mark buildings.

So the CIA knew that KSM had been at the Kuala Lumpur meeting planning the Cole bombing, and even knew he was overseeing the huge attack in the summer of 2001 that would involve hijacked aircraft that would target the WTC Towers, the Pentagon and the Capitol building.

All of this will come out at the trial of KSM.

So is this why the Bush administration waited 8 years and then still did nothing and then wanted to try KSM in a military commission so his testimony could be kept secret?
