al-Qaida suspects taking the Fifth?
Tareq and Michaela Salahi, the infamous "White House Gate Crashers," appeared before Congress and "took the Fifth" 31 times. As American citizens, they have that right.
Thanks to the Obama administration now noncitizen terrorism suspects are also given that right. If we can't get the Salahis to provide answers in a trespassing case, how much success can we really expect when questioning al-Qaida murderers?
