Josh Marshall has this to say about the no-shame whatsoever assministration, there, I said it. Here's the whole post.
Maybe I'm missing something. But President Bush's announcement today of the transfer fourteen accused terrorists from secret prisons abroad to Guantanamo Bay seems pretty elementary in terms of political strategy, no?
As we speculated last night, President Bush wants to gin up a hail mary pre-election political fight over the constitution (no pun intended) of military tribunals for accused terrorists. This election-timed stunt is intended to put fourteen faces on the president's fight over the rules for his kangaroo courts.
So now, you're either with Bush or you're with Khalid Sheikh Mohammed.
What am I missing exactly?
Remember: It's all about the politics.
