I'm not saying the man being held uncharged is dangerous, but the fact of the matter is that there is a reason why the W, Rove and Co is not allowed to detain people without charges in America.
The Bush administration cannot legally detain a U.S. resident it believes is an al-Qaida sleeper agent without charging him, a divided federal appeals court ruled Monday. The court said sanctioning the indefinite detention of civilians would have "disastrous consequences for the constitution — and the country."Sleeper agent or not, it is not right to hold people without charging them - and if we have to let this man go because the W, Rove and Co is trampling over the constitution without regard, then he blows himself up in a crowded Starbuck's, who's to blame (aside from the would be suicide bomber himself)?
