It would be the biggest mistake this country could make, to use the criminal model, but yet still hold people indefinitely without trial.

I want to make sure we preserve that.

I think the extra process that we're providing these detainees will confer a legitimacy to the trials.

We believe the Levin-McCain-Graham amendment to section 1031 of the NDAA addresses this problem by authorizing protective orders in this context.

I think we need to get a little more specific.

Let me just be clear. You object to random reviews of cockpit recordings just to verify that we're keeping sterile cockpits and following other rules? You object to that?

We do need to make sure there is a standard of safety for every American.

I think we need to somehow get that in a--some joint letter to the FAA, to make sure that we're at least reviewing those recommendations.

I agree with everything you said about the concerns about this flight.

The idea that we cannot find a place to securely house 250-plus detainees within the United States is not rational.
