If bin Laden is captured, the Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee doesn’t see any need at all to interrogate the al Qaeda founder and mastermind — because we already have enough on him for a “conviction.”
Leahy went on to defend Holder, saying “We’re going to bring them back to New York and prosecute them…I think we ought to stand up and applaud that.” Why would we stand up and applaud that? Democrats seem to genuinely believe that this is all a show, that as soon as the decent and law-abiding Obama administration starts giving terrorists their due process rights, our enemies will lay down their arms and simply surrender to our moral superiority. But we’ve already tried it this way. The first time these guys attacked the WTC, the Clinton administration did everything by the book — due process for terrorists in U.S. courts. And how’d that work out?
