Ever since Eric Holder made the announcement that the Justice Department was going to try Khalid Sheikh Mohammed in a New York federal criminal court, the refrain from liberal columnists and TV hosts, administration flacks, and Democrat members of congress has been:
“We are going to show the world that we are better.”
Better than what? On Fox News Sunday, Senator Jake Reed, (D. RI) told Chris Wallace. “This is an opportunity to show that we’re better than the terrorists.” Really? That’s in doubt?
But if you put the talking point in context of what Barack Obama has said every chance he has gotten, in forums all over the world, here is what must be left unspoken for now, to avoid the charge of politics:
We are going to show the world that we are better now that Barack Obama is in charge. Now that we are no longer a warmongering rogue nation run by war criminals who were torturers and on the same moral level as the terrorists.
