Senator Lindsey Graham Asks Eric Holder Questions About The Trial In New York
Graham: “Under domestic criminal law, the moment the person is in the hands of the United States government they’re entitled to be told they have a right to a lawyer and can remain silent, and if we go down that road, we are gonna make this country less safe”
Here’s a little reminder of Eric Holder who was Deputy Attorney General under Janet Reno in 1999 answering questions about the clemency of the 16 FALN terrorists before the Senate Judiciary Committee.

Notice the LACK of concern Eric Holder has for this woman that lost her son on Flight 93 on 9-11.~ Wild Thing
“I am afraid that the theatrics are gonna take over at this point and I very much regret that”
” I take great exception to the decision to give short shrift to the military commissions and to put the five most heinous criminals and war criminals into court in New York City, an emotional Alice Hoagland, whose son Mark Bingham died on hijacked United Flight 93, told Holder. It will give these ugly people, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and Ramzi Binalshibh especially, very eloquent access to all the media sources in the United States.”

Wild Thing’s comment……..
I an NO fan of Graham but I have to say that this is outstanding how he questinos Holder about the trial for Khalid Shaikh Mohammed.
Perhaps Lindsey got wind of Palin’s remark she gave TWS in their interview?….lol
“As for Lindsey, individually, I really like him,” she says. “His constituents may want to send him a message to say ‘shore it up’ and come back to some more commonsense, conservative ideals.”
Either way….attacking Holder now is paramount to preventing this tragedy part deux.
Chrissie, even a coyote will fight if he’s cornered, as noble as Graham’s challenge to Eric Holder is, he’s like Obama, watch what he does not what he says. I hope Sarah Palin sees through the facade of Graham and McCain. Hey I liked that shit eating dog I used to have too but he sure had some disgusting eating habits, I feel the same way about those part time Republicans. Vote ’em all out.
I agree with both you and Jack regarding Lindsay Graham.
I have to give him credit thought in this case. He brought up a very cognisent point and continue to drive it home as that a-hole, AG wiggled and waffled.
This trial thing is just another example of Obama and his team eroding the structure and fabric of America.
Regarding Graham and the other RINOS. This may be an indication that the Conservative Message is getting through. Our voices are being heard and the volume is going up, thanks to Sarah geting on all of these shows, and the continuing efforts of the blog sites like yours.
Lindsey seems a bit bipolar. But I’m glad he stuck it to Holder, who is probably the worst AG America has EVER had. Another idiot in love with his reflection. He must realize that by giving these murdering thugs a civilian trial on American soil they will probably walk. Too many “what ifs.” They will do it as a gesture of good faith to those who want to kill us and Israel in a very poor attempt to get them off the “let’s kill Israel and America.” bandwagon. That’s the nature of diplomacy. We scratch their back, they scratch us. Just wait until we get attacked anyway.
Lynn, good take, I agree.
Thanks too Jack and SEAN.
