#1 This is really not a surprise. Many in the new Democratic Party congressional leadership opposed the Military Commissions Act, echoing complaints from human rights groups like the Center for Constitutional Rights and Amnesty International. The Democrats are now tossing this over to their supporters, in essence, seeking to score political points from their supporters and get positive press from the mainstream media.

More dhimmicrat shennanigans. No wonder they feel like they can declare the war lost. They are working assiduously to bring about defeat.

#2 The committee can vote, and the whole Senate can vote, then the House, and then the President vetoes it.

#3 Why the hell anyone is insisting that foreign born terrorists should be permitted access to citizen based jurisprudence goes beyond all comprehension. To do so merely justifies the use of rendition, black ops and other below-radar field practices. Counter-terrorist measures are at the same level as foreign espionage. No one in their right mind would expect the government to openly identify its foreign agents or targets. Why then do these morons think we should do so with our Islamic enemy? There should one simple blanket response to this sort of counter-productive judicial nonsense, a ~~polite "no"~~ loud FOAD!
