HEY, RUBES! Report: Obama considering indefinite detention of terrorists without trial. “Exit question via David Frum: Why does Dick Cheney continue to attack Obama instead of pointing out that, in some respects on terrorism, The One is actually out-Bushing Bush? No wonder the White House wants to tangle with Cheney. The more they squabble with him, the easier it is to convince their base that they’re actually high-minded civil libertarians who would never do anything as nefarious and neocon-ish as, er, detaining people indefinitely without trial.”

They told me if I voted for McCain we’d be locking up people and throwing away the key without even the thought of a trial. And they were right!
