"The Supreme Court did raise questions about the military commissions, and Congress passed some laws, I think, that improved that."

"I think the idea that a captured combatant who, if eligible to be tried because they have committed violations of the laws of war, would be tried in military commissions is only common sense and part ..."

"I do not think we should give a preference to military commission trials simply because the enemy attacked civilian people rather than military people."

"I think the fact that you have, in Mississippi, 11 cases overturned as a result of ineffective assistance of counsel indicates that the appellate courts are monitoring these cases closely."
