They've got him on being an Arab with a significant interest in Bin Laden and hydrogen cyanide in possession of al-Queda telephone cards opening opening up fraudulent bank accounts with bogus identification. That's enough for me to comfortably but him the "enemy combatant" catagory, as well as, the "better safe than sorry catagory." In the WoT the old maxim that "it is better to beg for forgiveness than ask for permission" saves thousands of lives. The ruling will get overturned by a more nuanced SCOTUS ruling, which along with Hamdi and Padilla defines the constitutional edges between "crime" and "war". So we have the poster-boy terrorists versus Libby. Again, Libby was convicted for lying about a non-crime. Not for outing the bimbo. So Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy - I do see the difference, the very big difference. Both cases are political (war being an extension of politics), but one of them fraudulently declares itself to be justice. It says a great deal that you can't see the similarities or the differences. No case?

Given that the Administration has no case why shouldn't he go free? Libby, on the other hand, was rightly convicted in a court of law. It says a great deal that you can't see the difference.

Al Marri should go free - Libby in prison. You guys are as precious as little kittens. Nice fear-mongering Justin. Al Marri should go free - Libby in prison.
