Chris Dodd:

Compare that case [the Moussaoui trial] to the case of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, who organized the attacks of 9/11. He was held in a secret prison, where he claims he was tortured severely. Whether he is lying or not, by our actions we have allowed Khalid Mohammed to claim the moral high ground. Khalid Mohammed plays martyr to a world that is inclined to believe it.

Bryan at Hot Air:

I can’t even describe how sick I am of Democrats and liberals engaging in this kind of dishonest hyperbole just to score points with the nutroots. It’s psychotic, how far Dodd is willing to go in this quote and in the entire post to vent his disagreements with the administration’s conduct of the war. It’s also dangerous. Quotes such as Dodd’s hearten the enemy by showing them that we’re divided and at each other’s throats.

Amen.

I said after the last debate that by objecting to giving driver’s licenses to illegal immigrants, Chris Dodd was the last sane man on an insane stage. Well, so much for his sanity. Is there any chance anybody else – maybe Biden – will say Thursday night, “You know, Chris, you’re full of it if you think we allowed KSM to claim the moral high ground. Jack Bauer could go to town on his fingernails for 24 straight hours and we’d still have the moral high ground over that mass-murdering bastard.”
