I’m sure this is a cleverly crafted distraction from something… But I’ve simply lost track of which faux-outrage is supposed to be hot today.

I’m waiting for the collapse of civilization which presumably is imminent because of this move.

I love how the White House is not fooling around with this. No Gitmo, no suspense. Just start the damn trial.

Will our “imperial fasco-communist, Muslim” President parade him before a joint session of Congress wearing an iron collar, in homage to ancient Rome?

Now THAT would be a distraction from BENGHAZI!!1!!!

I am not a lawyer so I don’t know if that is the way things are supposed to be done

Really?

I had no faith that Dick Cheney would ever surrender.

Hope they did a nice slow flyover of the monuments and let him know that’s the last look of the outside world he’s gonna get for a long long time.

I believe the President is having quite the good time rubbing the right’s lunacy in their wrong faces.
They would have everyone believing that Guantanamo is the only way to go because that covers for more Dickie/Georgie f-ups and terrible decisions that haunt us in our daily lives to this day.
Obama just keeps exposing their charade little by little and I sort of like it this way. It sinks in and stays on the public’s collective minds long enough for them to actually care. Plus, we get to see Cheney, McCain and all of the real war lovin’ neocons flail on live TV trying to recreate the lies which just pushes people farther and farther away from them.

If this new capture is guilty, he will be dealt with according to our laws and international agreements which matters greatly despite the weak ass neocon justifications for breaking the American way.

Where I am sure he will explain completely how it is all Hillary Clinton’s fault,
and that’s why she should never be president.

No-nonsense, no-drama Obama. Good for him. I have always admired the way he has gone about every facet of his presidential obligations while dispensing with what the Beltway considered ‘indispensable’–SPIN.

Sad as it is, I’m afraid at least one guest on at least one chat show will advance a variation of this theory.

Don’t forget what King Kong ended up doing after he was captured and brought to the big city.
