How funny that now even conservatives criticize something by calling it Bush-like. Though unless it’s a kangaroo court that experienced prosecutors refuse to have anything to do with, it’s not Bush-like at all.

Why not try the suspects in civilian court, after all didn’t AG Holder all but promise a conviction? Even Obama in his interview seemed sure that KSM would be convicted.
