Once again, another angry GOPer who makes predictions and then argues against that.
Interesting...How is providing a prisoner of war with rights "jeopardizing the whole of America's security"? I'd love to hear it.
First off I am not a GOPr. A conservative yes. A GOPr no. The GOP as you call it has abandoned the conservatives. I would say I am more of an Ayn Rand conservative. I am an Independent since the age of 18. I knew then the phonies of both parties. Most people don't learn that in a lifetime.
Obama is an appeaser and an apologist. He is not much of an analyst or a statistician. If he were he would recognize that the left comprises less than 30 per cent of the population and conservatives comprise over 50%. That he was able to beguile the left and the moderates for a time , probably pretty much in entirety, with poetry and prose, does not mean he can thumb his nose at the majority of truly clear thinking Americans in order to appease the lunatic fringe.
Again, I have provided you a good example of how the dreamy eyed left is placing some rainbow fantasy of humanrights above the security of its citizens.
By example Holders handling of the latest intended bomber is endangering all of us. They should have yanked this **** ant of the plain took him to the military spa and we would be eliminating a cell about now. Instead your kind, want to lawyer up, have the taxpayers spend a couple million on the little delusional punk ass while th eremainder of the countries law abiding citizens sweat personal or national bankruptsy. You remind me of thes animal rights lunatics that would spend $100,000 to save a turtle with a cracked shell. That is the way you think. You live in la la land.

Reid and Moussaui were not caught on the battlefield.
They were caught in the US.
Duh!
We were responding to the erroneous statement that Reid was an American, Moussaui was added for good measure.
PS - very few of the Gitmo detainees were captured on the "battle field". Hence one of the huge gaps in the argument in favor of enemy combatant, much less POW.
Now you are changing the goal posts...tisk tisk. We are talking about terrorists who are were tried in civilian court.
Maybe you should read before weighing in.
From the OP;

This is the danger of trying enemy combatants that have been captured on the battlefield in our civilian criminal courts. There are not and should not be mirandized on the battlefield.

Hogwash.
Most were captured on the battlefield in Iraq and Afghanistan AND from nations around the world.
I beg to differ. He was caught in a foreign nation, as far as the war on terror goes, the "battlefield" is any foreign country where these guys are hiding out and plotting terror attacks, since it is not a war in the traditional sense.
