Exclusive: Should Tax Dollars Prosecute Terrorists or Pay for Their Defense Lawyers? » Publications » Family Security Matters

Exclusive: Should Tax Dollars Prosecute Terrorists or Pay for Their Defense Lawyers? » Publications » Family Security Matters: "Scott Brown's victory speech Tuesday night in Massachusetts included a sharp criticism of Obama's benevolent treatment of foreign terrorist suspects:

'And let me say this, with respect to those who wish to harm us, I believe that our Constitution and laws exist to protect this nation - they do not grant rights and privileges to enemies in wartime. In dealing with terrorists, our tax dollars should pay for weapons to stop them, not lawyers to defend them.'

Many political pundits are attributing Brown's stunning upset yesterday in the Bay State to Obama's unpopular health care agenda, but Brown's ascent in the polls also coincided with the Christmas Day bombing attempt and its aftershocks, of Northwest Flight 253 by a 23-year-old Nigerian, Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, and negative publicity stemming from missed warning signs by those in government who have been given a massive infusion of taxpayer resources to fight terrorism and prevent terror attacks since 9/11 (including an entire new federal agency dedicated to the defense of the homeland, the Department of Homeland Security and its subsidiary agency, the TSA (Transportation Security Administration)."
