Again?
Once again the Supreme Court has made a wrongheaded decision. Let's give constitutional guarantees to people we have fought against on a battlefield in time of war. Smart idea. That shouldn't cause a problem with anything. Wow!
Just picture a terrorist who was captured in battle in Iraq or Afghanistan waltzing into Federal Court, American Federal Court, and demanding that the person who captured him be present in the courtroom in for him to confront as allowed by our constitution for its citizens.
Now is that any way to fight a war? Hell no. I guess Democrats may get what they want after all. If any captured soldier can ask for and receive his day in our Federal court, then what is the point in fighting any wars at all?
Does this mean that being a citizen of the USA is meaningless? You can be in this country illegally and get free medical care, a driver license, welfare benefits and a free education. You can go to war with this country and demand a hearing in our courts. What is the point in having an American Citizenship if the benefits allowed a citizen are granted to every Tom, Dick and Harry in the world?
I am sick to my stomach!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Why does Barack Obama think that this is a good idea? He feels that prosecuting prisoners of war in American courtrooms is the right thing to do. Since when have non-US citizens on foreign soil, let alone on a battlefield, deserve United States Constitutional rights? It is not in the Constitution. It is nowhere but in the fantasy minds of ulta liberals who seem to want to run this country in the ground at every opportunity. And they are doing so with the help of the Supreme Court.
Outrageous indeed!
