"Obama Administration Cooks Up New Legal Argument for Detaining Guantanamo Prisoner" Jason Leopold
Edited on Tue Jul-28-09 12:32 PM by bobthedrummer
(July 28, 2009 Truthout.org)

"Faced with impendind defeat in a US District Court habeas corpus case, the Obama administration devised a new strategy for continuing the detention of Mohammed Jawad, an Afghani who may have been as young as 12 in 2002 when he allegedly wounded two US soldiers with a grenade."

2. You never fail to bring up indictments, that's about all we agree on
I've actually tried by letting law enforcement know of a network headed by a mostly Wisconsin based criminal that bragged (to a living witness of a murder he committed) that he would never be arrested, he was part of a Federal Grand Jury out of Milwaukee in 1970 he wasn't indicted either-the FBI/DEA were among his pals way back in 1969.

But that's part of who I am and the world I exchange energy with BlooInBloo...

4. I Think Rove Is a Lot Closer to Prison Now
Closer than he ever expected to be. Patience, my friend, the wheels of Justice grind slowly, but they grind exceedingly fine. Rove WILL get his, and I don't mean a payoff.

6. Only Real New Part Is That Obama Is Cooking Up A Child This Time
Wonder if he gets to take his "Former Enemy Combatant" t-shirt when he's "moved to another section of Guantanamo."
