Viewpoints: 9/11 conspirators shouldn't be tried in federal court
U.S. Senator Bob Corker ( R-Tenn.) is cosponsoring bipartisan legislation to prevent the use of Justice Department funds to prosecute Khalid Sheikh Mohammad and the 9/11 conspirators in federal court. The legislation, sponsored by Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) currently has 18 co-sponsors. Here are Sen. Corker's comments:
“Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and other al-Qaida terrorists should not be given the same rights as American citizens, and they should not be tried in a federal court.
“Congress responded to the 9/11 attacks by authorizing the use of military force and by developing a military commission system to detain enemy combatants and try those who violate the laws of war.
"Military commissions provide a fair standard of justice, reflect the true status of these terrorists according to U.S. and international law, and are the proper venue for the perpetrators of the 9/11 attacks.”

You had to go there, bfra...I am offended that you used crackers. As full partner in Dargent & Gdiafante, you will be sued momentarily.
LOL! I love Queen Latifah!
Elmer Fudd as George W Bush
Yosemite Sam as Dicke Cheney
Daffy Duck as Donald Rumsfield
Bugs Bunny as Obama
Pepe' Le Pew as Bill Clinton
So my movie would be a cartoon? That's even better.
"It's human nature to be apprehensive of 'different'. You know you've crossed the line into being a little bit racist when you catch yourself saying things like, 'wow, there sure are a lot of them'"
Why not, Funditto.
Dusty for when you get back: I have seen a lot of the US on a Harley but never with a gang. Rode in a lot of groups but when more than one bike pulls into most public places, you are treated like a gang. A lot of drivers don't even respect that you have a right to be on the road. But it is well worth it!
Jerry Mathers as the Beaver...

Oh yeah and RAP (yap) songs with violence against women! We need to zip those lips and stop that rap crap! And any other hate songs!
what about freedom of speech?
Well, is it freedom of speech if I say "NO more state funded abortions" or is it hate?
Is it freedom of speech if I say "no gay marriage" or is it hate?
Mind you I'm not "saying those things"; I'm just asking you to clarify. (disclaimer)

D-U: Outlaws, uh? I did picture you looking like "Yosemite Sam" or the "Frito Bandito". Close?
And nit-wit Sid says motorcycle clubs are for lovers? Introduce her to "The Hell's Angel's" or " The Diablos
Well, The Hell's Angels changed their image. And you are a nit wit cause you know what another nit wi looks like. STOP CALLING ME NAMES! Jack7.
And I hate anchovies! Gonna campaign against them next time they run!
My wife watches Lost, which means that I watch it...kinda. Fringe, too.
Dexter, True Blood, & House are the ones I actually pay attention to.
I don't watch House anymore, too predictable, that's why I watch Lost, you never know what's going to happen and it makes you think.
I like Fringe, I just haven't been watching it this year.
This just in at press time: Sid has it verified by 3 sources, only two of which are on Death Row, that "the Hell's Angel's have changed their image".
I'd say this woman is dumber than a box of rocks but I don't want to offend any obsidian.
g - low fat cheese? never tried that
Growing up, when I went hunting with my dad that would be all he took for us eat. Would stop at a country store and get a pt of milk@, so it was either eat or go hungry. That is how I cultivated a taste for sardines. Don't think they had made low fat cheese back then.
i saw Lost. answered a lot of questions last night.
i like sardines on crackers. do they still make the mustard ones? those were my favorite.
is it possible to score a negative number on an IQ test? sid, i got a job for you.....
They do make the mustard ones, Blanket. I'm surprised you don't see those at the Asian market.
well, i've never looked for them. i will next time i go there.
Fund-O: Michael Moore couln't possibly play me...he's too good looking.
sardines and a cold cold beer.
Several flavors. Wifey-poo likes the mustard sardines. I'm not a big fan.
Funditto, you think Debra Winger could play me? if we do the cartoon version, you could use Meg from Family Guy as me.
you like the regular ones with hot sauce, though?
Those, I can tolerate. Hot sauce works wonders.
Anchovies are a must on pizza.
What I don't like is pineapple on my pizza.
Or, bananas on my peanut butter, no offense to Elvis.
Or, whipped cream on my ......oh, never mind.
no bananas on peanut butter? come on, that's awesome. especially if you add some honey.
House: Isn't "Hot Sauce" that two bit hooker who works 2nd & Broadway? I heard she can work wonders.
dargent, she moved to the Starlight. house and slacker can confirm that.
And my seester...
lol, Mama!
everytime someone posts that it reminds me of Nacho Libre. i could watch that 100 times and still crack up!
Confirmed. That is not an admission of guilt, however.
Nazix2: Whenever I read an insane post by Sid, I watch The Three Stooge's "Pie Fight" to bring me back to reality.
You watch the Stooges quite a bit, then...
HA!
The Starlight, uh? The only one that I ever saw there was, "Whipped Cream".....she claimed she could straighten out any man's anchovie, "and turn it into paste".
I said I didn't order any pizza today, but I'd keep her in mind.
just no low fat cheese on the pizza, ok dargent?
No high-protein cheese, either...
gdia: While you elite sophisticates might have "Moonlight Sonata" as your cell's Ring-Tone, us others have Curly's, "Yuk,Yuk,Yuk" on ours.
Oregon couple was found guilty Tuesday of criminally negligent homicide for praying over their ill son instead of seeking medical help.

I think when you have Curly as your cell's wallpaper and "Yuk Yuk Yuk" as your Ring Tone, you're pretty much telling the Universe you no longer give a shit.
Some churches are starting "Fight Club"–style Ultimate Fighting leagues.
