The folks at the Pentagon are planning some election year surprises. Seems a few of the politicized members of the civilian staff are pushing for some high profile convictions before the 2008 elections.
According to a Washington Post article former lead prosecutor at Guantanamo, Air Force Col. Morris Davis, said senior defense officials discussed in a September 2006 meeting the "strategic political value" of putting some prominent detainees on trial. According to Davis there is the same kind of pressure on for 2008. In part it is why he resigned.
Look for lots of tricks in the next year to boost Bush and the GOPs sagging ratings.
