Early this year I wrote a blog piece titled The Stupid President where I heaped scathing criticism on Obama and his administration. 

In that post, I said the following:

"How about that civil trial of the 9/11 mastermind dude?  Isn't it thrilling to hear the President, the Attorney General, and the President's Press Secretary declare that we are going to give the terrorist a fair trial, find him guilty no matter what, and then kill him.  Yes a shining beacon of American justice, and a shining example of Obama Administration stupidity.  I still hold out hope that the blind justice system will humiliate these stooges by throwing out all evidence and all charges because this evil scum had his Constitutional rights violated (emphasis added).  The stupidity of civil trials is just....well it takes my breath away it's so dumb.  And in NYC of all places!!  My God.  My God."

My hope has more or less come true, and to no surprise on my part.

In an AP article published Wednesday titled "Judge bars key witness from Gitmo detainee's trial", it was reported by author Larry Neumeister that a Federal judge barred the testimony of a key witness in the trial of Ahmed Khalfan Ghailani, the very first Gitmo detainee to face a criminal trial in the US on terrorism charges.

Why bar the "star" witness?  Because the information regarding the witness was obtained during CIA sponsored interrogations conducted in a manner inconsistent with Constitutional protections afforded domestic criminals.  In short, the information was coerced.  In an American civil criminal trial, that's a major no-no, which leads to ALL evidence gathered as a result of that coercion being 'fruit of the poisonous tree', and thus inadmissible in court. 

So the very first trial of a Gitmo prisoner is thrown into chaos and doubt by stupidly applying criminal standards to enemy combatants.  How absolutely Forrest Gump stupid can the Obama Administration get?  How the hell could AG Holder (not the brightest bulb in the factory to begin with) or any other prosecutor not know that this evidence would be ruled inadmissible in court?  If even I know this as a non-attorney layperson, how is it that these spectacular dunderhead government lawyers didn't?

This is precisely why these enemy combatants must be tried by military tribunals where pesky coercive interrogation methods can be set aside in favor of the findings of fact.

It's just unbelievable how God-awful incompetent the Obama Administration is.

Every opposition candidate out there needs to pick up on this and SLAM the Democrats for supporting this stupid, stupid, stupid policy of trying enemy combatants as civil criminals. 

Obama and Holder got their humiliating legal defeat, and I am agog over this fiasco!
