If a federal judge has his way, 17 Chinese Muslim terrorists captured in Afghani terrorist training camps may be released right into the United States.

Welcome to the coming era of the Obama judicial system.

evidence that they are terrorists?

I think this is more evidence of an out of control executive that thought they could do anything, which is being reigned in by the judiciary.

What do you think they were doing at the terrorist training camp? Delivering pizza?

And they're Chinese. 17 American engineers just lost their jobs.

The government recently conceded that it would no longer try to prove that the Uighurs were enemy combatants, the classification it uses to detain people at Guantánamo, where 255 men are now held.

Quote:

Last summer, a federal appeals court ridiculed as inadequate the government’s secret evidence for holding one of the men. In the months since, the government has said that it would “serve no useful purpose” to continue to try to prove that any of these 17 men were enemy combatants.

Because the evidence is secret. Either you believe the gov't, or you don't.

You apparently don't. I dare you move to DC and live next to these 17 guys.

I don't believe the govt.

I am a conservative, and you are not. I think we have established that quite well.

A police state used to be something that the Republicans didn't favor.

You are a conservative like Andrew Sullivan is a conservative.

Which is exactly the problem.

Tex, you are tied to the mast of the GWB ship, and you are going down to the depths where you belong.
