The Des Moines Register follows the Howard Dean-I-Won't-Pre-Judge-bin Laden controversy, and leaves us with these quotes:
"I still have this old-fashioned notion that even with Osama, who is very likely to be found guilty, we should do our best not to, in positions of executive power, not to prejudge jury trials," Dean said in comments published Friday in the Concord (N.H.) Monitor.
John Kerry responded thusly:
"What kind of muddled thinking is it if you can't instantly say that in your heart you know bin Laden is guilty," the Massachusetts senator said in a telephone interview from New Hampshire on Saturday. "People are left wondering, 'What will he say next?"
The world waits.
