 TR> TERRORISTS' RESTLESS LEG SYNDROME
 TR> November 26, 2008

 TR> I thought the rest of the world was going to love us if we
 TR> elected B. Hussein Obama! Somebody better tell the Indian
 TR> Muslims.

 We didn't. We elected Barack Obama.

 TR> As everyone but President-elect B. Hussein Obama's base
 TR> knows, many of the Guantanamo detainees cannot be sent to
 TR> their home countries, cannot be released and cannot be
 TR> tried. They need to be held in some form of extra-legal
 TR> limbo the rest of their lives, sort of like Phil Spector.

 As everyone know, except the right wing hate extremists, the
 Guantanamo detainees may just be returnable to their homes,
 those that aren't guilty of anything, or can be sent home for
 execution, those who are guilty under their home laws, or can be
 released, those who never have even been accused of doing
 anything against the US, or can be tried, those who actually are
 accused of doing something against the US.

 During WW1 and WW2 we tried POWs who were also charged with
 crimes outside legitimate military action. We also tried
 prisoners who were captured out of uniform, in action against
 us. We executed some of them, all nice and legal. Unless Coulter
 has something against the US actually doing something about it,
 there is no good reason we can't do that now.

 TR> If Obama wants his detention of Islamic terrorists to be
 TR> dramatically different from Bush's Guantanamo, my
 TR> suggestion is that he cut off -- so to speak -- the
 TR> expensive prosthetic limb procedures now being granted the
 TR> detained terrorists.

 Wow! She sure can find a trivial complaint to blow up into a
 major issue.

 BTW, does that mean she would continue those detainees who
 haven't even been accused of any actual acts of terrorism?

 TR> No, you didn't read that wrong, because the VA won't pay
 TR> for your new glasses.

 Why would the VA pay for anything, unless you are a veteran?

 TR> Upon his release in March 2004, Massoud hippity-hopped back
 TR> to Afghanistan and quickly resumed his war against the U.S.

 If Massoud actually was a terrorist, his release merely
 demonstrates the Bush Administration's absolute incompetence in
 dealing with terrorists.

 TR> Aided by his new artificial leg, just months later, in
 TR> October 2004, Massoud masterminded the kidnapping of two
 TR> Chinese engineers in Pakistan working on the Gomal Zam Dam
 TR> project.

 How is kidnapping Chinese engineers some kinda act against the
 US? For a long time now the right has been ranting about Chinese
 control of the Panama Canal. Why would anyone complain about
 something that keeps the Chinese from expanding their influence
 in India?

 TR> As a result of the kidnapping, the Chinese pulled all 100
 TR> engineers and dam workers out of Pakistan, and work on the

 And how, in light of the above, is that bad?

 TR> dam ceased. This was bad news for the people of Pakistan --
 TR> but good news for the endangered Pakistani snail darter!

 So, send US engineers, and protection, and get the glory and
 good raport in Pakistan for the US.

 TR> After being captured fighting with Taliban forces against
 TR> Americans in 2001, Abdullah Massoud was sent to Guantanamo,
 TR> where the one-legged terrorist was fitted with a special
 TR> prosthetic leg, at a cost of $50,000-$75,000 to the U.S.

 Why is it that expensive? Sounds like a problem with the US
 medical industrial complex.

 TR> taxpayer. Under the Americans With Disabilities Act,
 TR> Massoud would now be able to park his car bomb in a
 TR> handicapped parking space!

 Does an artificial leg qualify for a handicapped sticker? Can't
 he walk with that?

 ...

 TR> Anyone who thinks the Guantanamo detainees can be released
 TR> without consequence doesn't have a leg to stand on.

 Anyone who thinks all the Guantanamo detainees are terrorists
 who have attacked the US has been living in a cave.
