Or, we could have executed him...

From the un-fucking believable department:

American Taliban John Lindh is asking for a lighter prision sentence.

According to this traitorous piece of shit:

"As passions have cooled, it became clearer to people that John was a young man ... who was in the wrong place at the wrong time," said Lindh's attorney, James Brosnahan of San Francisco. "Hopefully, this president or some future president will reduce his sentence."

Could this moron be more clueless? Let's see, 'John' was 21 when he was captured. It strikes me that the young men and women fighting in Afghanistan and Iraq are the same age or younger. Some how these fine Americans managed to fight on the right side of this war when Lindh decided that he'd throw his lot in with oppressive killers.

He deserves no mercy. In fact, he was given too much leniency in the first place. He should have been executed for treason.

Now, the best we can hope for is that some muddle headed President in the future (cause there ain't no way GWB is commuting this sentence) and the Lindh rots in jail for as long as the law allows.
