Unintended Consequences Do the Presidents people even think about this?  email this discussion to a friend?

When a policy made or changed or a speech is given many times there are unintended consequences. For example when the President and members of Congress criticized business executives for flying on Corporate Jets during difficult economic times, they never thought that it would lead to canceling of orders for Corporate jest which resulted in the layoff of tens of thousands of workers in the air plane business and the people who worked in those communities. Later when the President was bashing business he said that companies should not hold conventions in cities like Las Vegas or Orlando, instead hold them in Detroit or Milwaukee where unemployment is high. Las Vegas lost over 400 conventions and forced major layoff of hotel, casino and restaurants workers.

Now he is trying illegal enemy combatants in Civilian Courts and sentencing them to US prisons. Many of the home grown terrorists were converted or recurited in the US Prisons. Are we going to be the new recruiter for terrorists?

One of my biggest problems with this administration is their shortsightedness, lack of foresight, or the ability to think things through. They get a brainstorm, oh this sounds good, and run with it, never taking the time to think it through to the end.

And while the President is bi+ching about execs using corporate jets, he better look in the mirror.

The problem is that they see themselves as privileged and not restricted by the rules that apply to others. Look at the "Climate Change Conference over 100 private jets flew into the conference and had to leave and go to other airports because of the lack of room at the airport. Talk about a carbon foot print. Both Prince Charles and PM Brown flew in separate large private jets barely loaded. They tell us to cut back on our travel and use of fuel but they don't.

I was going to mention all those jests and limos 'needed' for the climate summit.. To my mind, proves how concerned they reaLLy are...

They're concerned for their wallets. There's a huge industry that has sprung up around global warming and alternative energies. Gore has lots of money invested in it and so does nancy Pelosi's husband. Is it any wonder they push it?
But like I said above, they are above the law. WE should cut back but not them. that's how they see it. Elitist, every single one of them.
I wish the brainwashed sheep of this country would wake the F up.

Muslims have been recruiting in prisons for a very long time.

The main point is that enemy combatants have no place in our civilian courts, nor any of the rights of citizens.

They are not even covered under the Geneva Convention.

All a criminal trial will accomplish is giving these terrorists a chance to spout their propaganda, and a new target for other terrorists who seek to disrupt the trials.

This is just more evidence that Comrade 0bama does not have our best interests at heart... that he is instead working an agenda of his own.
