No show for today, as we're all taking it easy on the holiday weekend. I'm actually trying to get over a tryptophan hangover, but I'll probably find a reason to get out of the house today for a while. Since I wrote the book review for Amy Alkon's book I ...

Andy McCarthy today: The prosecution team I led in 1995 convicted the notorious Blind Sheikh and 11 others for conspiring to wage a terrorist war that included the 1993 World Trade Center bombing and attempting (unsuccessfully) to attack New York City landmarks. Consequently, some observers seem puzzled that I'm a vocal critic of civilian trials for our terrorist enemies. But they are...

... respectively. These motives are by no means mutually exclusive and are overlapping. My friend Andy McCarthy, at National Review Online, emphasizes: "The decision . . . is one of the most irresponsible ever made by a presidential administration. That it is motivated by politics could not be more obvious." Andy surmises that these proceedings will put the Bush administration...

Is it just me, or does Khalid Sheikh Mohammed look just like one of the marionettes from “Team America: World Police?” I digress… I really don’t have anything to add to the KSM/9-11 trial that folks like Rudy Giuliani, Pete King, and Andy McCarthy have express more articulately and with more effective anger than I [...]

... about this fail is that the bogus talking point originated, as Glenzilla details in full, from Andy McCarthy, an unserious conservative "intellectual" who defends birthers and death panels. Is there anything at all genuine about the Ayotte candidacy?

Once conservatives became embarrassed by their cowardly warnings that we would all be killed if we held a 9/11 trial in New York, they switched to a new argument: trials in a real court would lead to the disclosure of classified information that would help the Terrorists. In advancing this claim, they relied on the always-unhinged rantings of National Review 's Andy McCarthy -- who has...
