Borat Obama is on a distinguished road
Default Death Penalty For Terrorists

“It is absurd that the same group of people who have failed to kill or capture Osama bin Laden for over six years are now arguing about what we should do if we capture him. Barack Obama will redouble our efforts against al Qaeda, target their leaders wherever we find them, increase our forces in Afghanistan and finish the fight there. In short, he will do what the Bush Administration hasn’t done and John McCain won’t do -- make our top priority bringing bin Laden to justice and shutting down al Qaeda before they attack again. A bad decision that George Bush made and John McCain fully supported --to divert forces from Afghanistan to Iraq -- left Osama bin Laden free to promote his vicious brand of violence, and empty tough talk can’t reverse that fact or make up for bad judgment.” --Richard Danzig, former Secretary of the Navy
OBAMA HAS REPEATEDLY SAID HE SUPPORTS THE DEATH PENALTY FOR BIN LADEN

Obama Said That He Would Order A Trial That Observed International Standards And Osama Would Qualify For The Death Penalty Because He Perpetrated Heinous Crimes. Obama said, “The first thing I'd support is his capture, which is something this administration has proved incapable of achieving. I would then, as president, order a trial that observed international standards of due process. At that point, do I think that somebody who killed 3,000 Americans qualifies as someone who has perpetrated heinous crimes, and would qualify for the death penalty. Then yes.” [AP, 7/20/07]

Susan Rice Said Osama Would Have A Fair And Transparent Military Process Or Judicial Process And Would Be Eligible For The Death Penalty. Susan Rice said, “He would put him [Osama Bin Laden] in, if he were captured as opposed to killed. There would have to be a fair and transparent military process or judicial process. That is how we lock people away and make them eligible for the death penalty.” [CNN, 6/18/08]
