Sen. Schumer Tells Pres. Obama to Use Military Base For Terror Trial

Where in Kansas – in Leavenworth? Gosh he’s throwing the treasured  home of his grandparents under the bus now.I guess Sebelius doesn’t care about that but Moran , running  to take over Dennis Moore’s seat and Brownback running for governor will.

I read that Obama is playing out the string on this and waiting for Congress/Senate to make the move to not authorize financing for the trial security – which will force Obama to go back to Gitmo and a military tribunal. It appears to be a foregone conclusion.

How cool is that!!? Schumer reads NQ, and gets ideas from it!!! I suggested Leavenworth as a site for the trial on this blog a while ago..the supermax prison to be precise. They have the military base nearby for security, and the prison should be easy to secure, given it’s already a supermax. If it’s good enough for John Gotti to die in, it’s good enough to try a terrorist.

“and by allying herself with the Obama Administration, allowing him campaign for her. This seemed to indicate she would be the crucial 60th vote on Mr. Obama’s unfortunate health care bill, however reluctantly. This sealed her fate. But as we have seen, the herd mentality in both parties makes it near impossible to stand alone. Trapped between being ostracized by her own party or going along to get along, she became the casualty,”
***********
I supported Ms. Coakley financially during the primary eventhough I lived 1,500 miles from her state.  Her stated positions during the primary indicated that she might be a person with enough integrity to stand alone, if necessary.  When the pressure was applied she capitulated.  If she had taken a stand, she would have won but even with a loss she could have held her head high.  Hopefully her loss with provide a example to other Dem. political hopefulls that the old base is looking for politicians with integrity, (good luck with that)

Is Obama ever NOT hemming and hawing? 

Very interesting. Chuck Shumer is one of my Senators. He is one of the oiliest sons of bitches I’ve ever encountered. His statement could mean a lot of things, especially since he’s such a weasel.

Taking it on face value, I’d say he’s scared. More tea leaves to interpret. But anything Shumer says has to be scrutinized with a lot of care. The guy is a a publicity hog for one thing. I don’t think you can cut a ribbon at a new senior citizens’ center or dedicicate a new parking garage in New York State without Chuck showing up and shoving everyone aside to grin at the cameras.

Old joke: Where’s the most dangerous place to be?

Between Chuck Shumer and a television camera.

It’s true. I’ve seen him in action myself.

This is so ludicrous.  Schumer acting patriotic?  What a stunner.  I wonder how much he has funneled off to Israel.   It is amazing how consistently phony the upper echelon of the D party is.  Think about it:  Obama, Axelrod, Dean, Reid, Pelousi, Schumer, Murtha…oh, that’s right, that mother is dead, but you get the picture.  How slimey can one get or appear? 
Schumer, you’re the winner.

Barry Soetoro is voting present!

This is a killing issue for the Dems in general and Obama specifically.  Personally, I have no problem with civilian trials per se but thought the NYC venue was unbelievably insensitive to New Yorkers.  And the price?  Good grief.  There’s no way you can justify that price tag. 

My only hangup with civilian trials and the idea of showcasing the American justice system was the ludicrous public statements made by the AG and the President–they both said the evidence was overwhelming, that the whole crew would be found guilty and executed.

And that showcases what exactly? 

As for Schumer, he’s obviously feeling the public pressure on the issue and watching his approval polls slip.  But we’re suppose to be a country of Laws.  Not ruled by public opinion. Otherwise, we’d just pull out a rope and lynch the suckers. If the original idea was a sound one then Schumer and all the other Dems should be fighting like mad to debate the merits.

Instead, we have weasels who only respond to election data.  And btw, the Republicans are no better IMO.

Depressing.

Hold the trial in Las Vegas.

Like his b ball idols; O and the KSM crew, know that the big ego needs the Big Apple.  Why play for fans when you can play for the pump?

Yeah, that Schumer is quite a guy.

That is a rhetorical question, correct?

“…like clutching a fresh donut…”

I love this phrase — good image!

“Voting Present” – perfect metaphor.

You taking to me? You taking to me?

hemMing (turn head left to look at one teleprompter)
hawing (turn head right to look at the other teleprompter)

I agree. Las Vegas would be a fine site for the trial.  The forum should be the Treasure Island Casino.   This would be one way to recoup some of the business which has been lost thanks to  Obama’s foolish suggestion that people not blow their money on Las Vegas.

arabella, just a slight correction.. gee means to turn to the right, and haw means turn to the left. They are age-old commands for yoked oxen or plow horses in harness. Also used for sled dogs in Alaska, I understand. Just thought you would like to know.
O:-)

What a piece of work is a man, how noble in reason, how
infinite in faculties, in form and moving how express and
admirable, in action how like an angel, in apprehension how like
a god! the beauty of the world, the paragon of animals—and yet,
to me, what is this quintessence of dust? Man delights not me—
nor woman neither, though by your smiling you seem to say so.

My lord, there was no such stuff in my thoughts.

OK.  Hamlet.  But I have been shoveling snow toninght, burned out, and could not come up with anything better to answer Steve1 above on “What a bunch of characters wie have in Congress?????”

Yours.

Wherever it’s held, perhaps baton-wielding New Black Panthers could provide security???

Atty Gen Robert Kennedy would have prosecuted the panthers and discovered who told them to be there.  I wonder if he would have consulted others, if he were AG now, before taking the trial to NY.

I think the idea that holding a trial in NYC is somehow a danger to anyone is without substance and a GOP misguided alarm.  It’s been done before.  Clinton and GW both tried extremists in the U.S. and there were no problems.  Why all the hand wringing? Criminals should be treated like criminals, nothing more and nothing less.  Our judicial system is what separates us from extremists and we should not shy away from our democratic principles that everyone must have his/her day in court.  The U.S. can handle any criminal, from Al Capone to Manson to extremists from other part of the world.

Did GW not try a terrorist that was part of 9/11 and everything was fine?  The Clinton administration also tried terrorists.  To believe that the U.S. does not have the warewithall to try these people in NYC is the same as saying that they are a powerful mutant from the X Men movie.  They are not.  It will be good for all Americans to see these terrorists in chains and powerless before a judge and a jury.

ellen, where do you live? tell you what, let’s have it right near your home. how about that?

Niggertown is DC is its politicians.  Listen

Only if they can have nice purple shirts…

They can put up all the prisoners and their attorneys at the Ritz in Las Vegas which was going to go out of business. But with the deep pockets of this administration, we can all party like it’s 1999.

Area 51.  There’s the base that’s so remote according to the military it doesn’t exist. Yeah, maybe Obama could attend and accidentally be put on the next inter-galactic mission to Hisanus.

I agree with you Guest. I’m tired of being told I should be scared. Phooey! The U.S. will always be a target of someone or other so long as it is the highest profile country in the world. Lets keep our cool and go on with our lives.

Las Vegas, yeah!  Francic Ford Coppola could direct,  He could get his cameo by sitting in the jury or running a craps table. Lots of possiblities.

“Ya gotta love deese guys!”
U talkin to me?

I didn’t know that Dawn was a shark repellent. The things you learn on NQ.

Acually, I think they changed the formulation of Dawn liquid detergent. We don’t have an automatic dishwasher, so I wash a lot of dishes. I found Dawn liquid detergent to live up to its promise as a grease cutter. Very effective at getting grease off dishes and glasses, and you didn’t have to use much. I did notice that Dawn also pulled all the natural oils out of my hands. Maybe some customers did not like this feature.

I think the newer version of Dawn is less effective at cutting grease (much less, in my opinion) but it doesn’t irritate my hands. Plus you have to use more detergent.

I hope the Navy has addressed this issue, if I am correct about the reformulation. I would hate to see them use a less effective shark repellent. Navy SEALS totally rock!

I think that has been the plan from day one, but Obama promised to close Gitmo. So he, in his usual passive agressive way, is hoping that the Congress will force him to use Gitmo.

Let me look at my copy of The Obama Playbook.

Divide and Conquer
Scapegoating

Yep. His obots are probably writing their talking points on the backs of their hands right now.

Li’l Obama: I was forced by my uncooperative Mother to copy my homework from another kid on the school bus. My mother wouldn’t let me leave the lights on long enough to finish my homework on my own.

Big Obama: I was forced by the uncooperative Congress to hold the trial at Gitmo. New York wouldn’t cooperate.

All countries are merging into one world government. That is the desire of the U.S. due to its worldwide financial system. The decision about where and how to try AKM has to do with how those types of trials affect the merging of the legal systems from all parts of the world. These people are also called International terrorist.  
  
We just have to accept that the best thing for us is to be like them. All in one and one in all – a three mosketeers world. That among many other reasons is why our Dept of State has this beautiful demonstration project of Haitian soverneignty going on for its own citizens in Haiti.

Couldn’t agree more. God forbid for either party to do what is right the first time out; instead it is all political theater, so very predictable.

That was before terrorists (oh, excuse me “extremists) hijacked two planes, drove them into the twin towers and incerated a couple of thousand people.

We New Yorkers are a little sensitive about that. We breathed in the ashes of dead for days. I lost 5 co-workers in the 9/11 attack, two of whom were on one of the planes.

Al Capone did not have associates who were capable of this kind of retaliation. Neither did Manson. Thousands of innocent people will be killed by terrosists, I mean extremists, who might decide to blow up buildings, or release toxic agents in New York City as a political statement. Also New York has a sizeable Jewish population, making it a “target rich” environment for terrorists who hate Jews.

Where do you live, Guest?

In Haiti you have an example of THE THREE MOSKETEER WORLD. You have the merging of the Haitian, U.S. and U.N. governments.  
 
The Musketeers were a group of swordsmen sworn to loyalty to the French king and who were among his personal guards. The Three Musketeers is a fictional tale by Dumas about three musketeers (Athos, Porthos, and Aramis) and their friend, D’Artagnan (who wants to be a musketeer), and how they thwart the French Cardinal and governmental minister Richelieu (sp.?) who is trying to kill or depose the king and take over France.  
 

Historical Context
   
Many of the characters who appear in The Three Musketeers were real people who are depicted reasonably accurately in the novel, although Dumas did take fictional liberties with their actions. King Louis XIII, Anne of Austria, and Cardinal Richelieu were important people during the period of the novel. Monsieur de Treville and Richelieu really were enemies — in fact, in 1642, de Treville was part of a plot to assassinate the Cardinal. Richelieu did have his own personal company of guards, who did have a fierce rivalry with the Musketeers. The tension between France and England, and the ensuing war in which the Guards and Musketeers fought, was an historical fact.

Chuck You Schumer’s Wall Street Donors Look For Revenge.
http://www.newser.com/story/80495/schumers-wall-street-donors-look-for-revenge.html

Chuck Schumer is making enemies in high places among “his wealthiest and most powerful constituents,” writes Chris Smith. These Wall Street honchos have long poured money into Schumer’s campaign coffers, but now they think he’s not doing enough to protect them from regulation attempts. “Chuck says, ‘I’ve been there to help you,’ ” says one lobbyist. “Well, that’s when we were playing stickball. Now we’re in a cage match and he’s hiding under his desk.” Schumer’s critics—who accuse him of adopting a populist streak so he can be the next majority leader—have no hope of unseating him, but they can take revenge in other ways, writes Smith in New York magazine. That includes getting behind Harold Ford Jr. as he tries to oust Kirsten Gillibrand—”a virtual ward of Schumer’s”—from her Senate seat. “A lot of what’s fueling the Ford thing is Chuck’s donors, who are furious at him,” says a political consultant. “They feel he’s walked away from them.”

Yeah, I for got about that.  That was when I was pulling for HRC.  He is such a snake.

The Marine and the Professor…stop me if you’ve already heard it. Ha!
A former marine enrolled in a college course. One day his atheist professor stood in front of the class and said “okay God, if you exist, strike me down in the next 15 minutes.”
After 10 minutes, the professor looked up and said “I’m waiting.”
With that the marine walked to the front and cold-cocked the professor. He returned to his seat while the class sat in stunned silence.
The professor staggered to his feet and said “young man, why did you do that?”
The marine replied “God was busy, he sent me instead!”

Sure, but only when he isn’t speaking at all!

Say that is true… O.K. then the decision of Bin Laden to attack NYC as the worlds financial center… was he really attacking that “financial center” or acting as a catalyst for this larger plan? Would he even know the difference? If not, this would make him a “useful idiot”. This plays into the 911 truthers claims. Wow, this has the makings of a great conspiracy novel turned into a miniseries.

Oops, I forgot. That one is for all the corpsemen!

“The Marine and the Professor…stop me if you’ve already heard it”

Hey Sassy–I tried to stop you, but I just kept right on reading!

Hey oowawa!
Remember when giving the one-digit salute to write “up yours” on the BACK of your hand!
See we are getting very intellectual here!

Ah, I remember the 3 Mouseketeers well–Cubby, Darlene, and especially Annette–we all loved her so much.  Hmmmm . . . I seem to have forgotten how this connects to the topic . . .

NO, everyone liked Annette’s sweater.  

and robert gibbs had the audacity to make fun of sarah palin for writing cliff notes on her hand. at least when she speaks off the cuff you dont hear “uhmm, er,,umm,.. uhh…umm” she doesnt need someone elses hand up her backside telling her what to say. 

lord, please don’t those braying jacks select fort hood.

anyone else think obama and holder saying the terrorists will be found guilty and executed was on purpose?   any decent lawyer could  call for a mistrial saying  the defendants were prejudged (by the president no less) and could not possibly get a fair trial.  since holder’s old law firm  was very involved in defending terrorists, seems  to me ,  he is still doing it, except hes now going thru the backdoor to accomplish it.

hmmi notice our trolls travel in pairs or in threes now. need protection from those ole meanies at nq huh.

i also wonder if the israeli lobby will continue to support schummer.

maybe he can create some jobs by opening  a bobblehead doll factory featuring obama and meechele bobblehead dolls. each one comes with a free plastic helicopter (courtesy of the WH gift shop), a free dvd of all obamas hysterical (oops i mean historical) speeches, and a complete wardrobe of mechelles sofa fabric clothing (along with a few plastic belts) .  and if you order immediately, they will include a chris mathews, and keith olberman bobblehead doll(complete with spittle)and their pants down around their ankles.    but wait…if you order 2 or more bobblehead dolls, they will throw in a bobblehead jack-in the botox nancy pelosi (with eyes that try to blink 100 times a minute but never quite succeeds) and a  bobblehead dead man walking harry reid (complete with horns and tail).   all this can be yours for a mere 1.3 trillion dollars (plus tax and shipping).  who said americans arent industrious and innovative?
