Sometimes the news just falls in your lap like a big ole Christmas (Non-sectarian winter holiday season, for the ultra libs) present.
This morning, in a Meet the Press discussion on the Guantanamo facility, John McCain said...

... I think, on balance, the argument has got to be--the weight of evidence has got to be that we've got to adjudicate these people's cases, and that means that if it means releasing some of them, you'll have to release them. Look, even Adolf Eichmann got a trial.

Where have I heard that name?
Does Mr McCain realize he's saying that America as a country does not afford the same legal protection to it's Muslim detainees as it did to the Nazis? Does Mr McCain not realize we're at war? Does Mr. McCain not realize that his statements provide comfort and encouragement to the very terrorists that seek to kill our brave soldiers?
What a quandry. Do I now take a giant leap away away from my good senses as well as my understanding of the english language and declare John McCain a disgusting individual? Or do I understand that Mr. McCain is pressing the point that Americans collectively have a standard of treatment for human beings and the recent events brought to light indicate that we are not living up to that standard?
It IS a puzzler
