CNN's Wolf Blitzer: "Jack, you gonna tell us how you really feel about Nancy Pelosi." Jack Cafferty: "I just did. She's a horrible woman." Jack is finally catching up with what talk radio pundits have been saying for months and months now. Wolf Blitzer.....he's not so quick to throw Nancy under the bus. Then again, as Jack points out, Ms. Pelosi is living high on the hog at the expense of YOU, the taxpayer!

74,000+ Sign Petition to Move Khalid Sheik Mohammed Trial From NYC
We, the editors of HUMAN EVENTS, RedState.com, and the many Americans who have attached our names to this petition hereby request that you try al-Qaeda's confessed 9/11 terrorist mastermind, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and his four al-Qaeda cohorts in a military tribunal, reversing your precedent-changing decision to try them in a civilian court in New York City.
There is no reason, much less a requirement, under U.S. Constitutional or statutory law to grant KSM and the others the right to a trial in civilian courts, nor to offer them any of the corresponding Constitutional rights afforded U.S. citizens. Logic, reason, and justice demand that the terrorists who planned the 9/11 attacks be treated as enemy combatants in a war against the United States, not as common civilian criminals.
