#1 What's he afraid of? It's a controlled access installation. Expect some one to bring a gun to the proceedings and shot him? Like when would something like that ever happen? /sarc off

#2 P2K,

He's afraid somebody is going to call this berserk Muslim terrorist traitor exactly that. There's a lot of people out there who are deathly afraid of the 'Emperor-has-no-clothes' moment, and there's a good chance that this trial could provide one.

NOTE: In fairness, the guy's being a zealous advocate for his client. We don't have to like it, but he's doing his job by playing every card he can.

#5 Until the ritual of trial and conviction takes place, the standard of ".., nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;.." applies. By act of Congress he is commissioned. He can not be 'decommissioned' till he's convicted and appeals finalized. Till such time the pay continues.

#6 Being paralyzed from the chest down may be a wors thing than dying. In some people, there is constant untreatable pain in the paralyzed parts of the body.

#8 since he hasn't bonked forehead 5 times a day (except on his high chair tray) - I assume he's apostate now?

#10 I believe the traditional military method of execution is firing squad.

Of course, it would not surprise me at all for Obama to pardon his fellow Muslim as he leaves office.
