What Do the Bush Regime and the Ahmadinejad Regime Have in Common?

Mark Kleiman has the answer.

I first heard of David Hicks when I saw the documentary about his case at Full Frame Fest in 2004. It seems odd that someone who was deemed so much of a threat that he has spent the last five years at Gitmo has been able to plea bargain down to a 9-month sentence. Kind of makes you wonder just how much of a Big Bad Guy he really is.
