BHO on KSM: Give Him Fair Trial, Then Hang the SOB!

Satire By John Lillpop

OK, perhaps the president did not use those exact words, but that is the essence of what our terrorist-coddling, PC addicted ditherer said.

As reported, in part, by National Review:

"In a meeting with the press in China, President Obama said that Khalid Sheikh Mohammed would be 'convicted' and had 'the death penalty applied to him' . . . and then said he wasn't "pre-judging" the case. He made the second statement after it was pointed out to him - by NBC's Chuck Todd - that the first statement would be taken as the president's interfering in the trial process.

"Obama said that wasn't his intention. I'm sure it wasn't - he's trying to contain the political damage caused by his decision - but that won't matter. He has given the defense its first motion that the executive branch, indeed the president himself, is tainting the jury pool. Nice work."

So just what did Obama set out to accomplish by moving KSM to a civilian court? Was he attempting to assure the Muslim world that American jurisprudence is based on a presumption of innocence and fairness?

Why then did he "act stupidly" by condemning KSM before the trial even began?

Again, we have another example of this none-too-bright community organizer trying to have it both ways, only to be tripped up by his own hypocrisy.

Comedian Bill Cosby still had the best overall advice for Mr. Obama: Keep your mouth shut, sir!
