C'mon, that's not true. It didn't happen for the previous terrorists Bush tried and convicted - quickly - in Federal Court, and it won't happen here. Big deal, he has a lawyer - who has already admitted publically there is no defense. He's already talked, talked, talked, talked. He's going down, quickly, into prison forever, goodbye, no TV for you, no attention, just like the rest of them.
You want to give him Geneva Convention rights? For Al Quaeda? Nonsense.
