American Taliban Puke John Walker Lindh Seeks Freedom
Many of you know my parents were hippies in the 60’s, and we moved to Hawaii when I was 10 in ‘73. But before we moved to Hawaii we lived in hippieville aka Fairfax, Calif. in Marin County.
Fairfax is where this puke is from, I’m sorry to say.
SAN FRANCISCO - The lawyer and parents of American-born Taliban soldier John Walker Lindh renewed their call to President Bush on Tuesday to commute his 20-year sentence and set him free.
Lindh, 27, was captured in Afghanistan in November 2001 by U.S. forces sent to topple the Taliban after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. He was charged with conspiring to kill Americans and supporting terrorists but pleaded guilty in 2002 to lesser offenses of supplying services to the now-defunct Taliban government.
Lindh had converted to Islam and went to Afghanistan to fight for the Taliban against the Northern Alliance in 2001.
“His only offense was serving in the army of Afghanistan,” his mother Marilyn Walker said at a news conference Tuesday. “He’s admitted this was a mistake on his part.”
But the father of CIA officer Mike Spann, who was killed in an Afghanistan prison uprising where Lindh was captured, called for Lindh to serve his full sentence.
Johnny Spann of Wingfield, Ala., said Lindh had a duty as an American to come to the CIA officer’s aid during the riot and didn’t.
“He could have helped save Mike’s life,” Spann said. “He could have helped save the lives of some of his al-Qaida cohorts.”
Lindh attorney James Brosnahan said he filed a formal commutation petition with President Bush and new Attorney General Michael Mukasey. It’s the fourth such attempt by Brosnahan, who brokered the plea deal and 20-year sentence.
Neither the president nor the Department of Justice have acted on the previous commutation requests. A Justice Department spokesman didn’t immediately return a call for comment.

My answer: Fook him. Let him rot.
December 19th, 2007 at 2:29 pmThey should’ve hung him. If he somehow does weasel his way out of his punishment, he better run fast and far.
December 19th, 2007 at 2:48 pmFree him … on the firing range of the nearest military training facility.
Sorry, know it’s the Christmas season … Having an Amazon Woman moment.
December 19th, 2007 at 2:49 pmThey should’ve capped his traitorous ass. Freakin’ scumbag. He doesn’t deserve to be treated as a citizen, he revoked his rights when he went to war against his own people.
December 19th, 2007 at 2:56 pmHe deserves a bullet.
President Bush should pardon Compean and Ramos.
Lindh should had been hung.
December 19th, 2007 at 3:15 pmFrankly, 20 years is too light sentence. I say line him up in front of an execution squad.
December 19th, 2007 at 3:15 pmMuch as I would have loved reading this bastard’s obituary, all of you should try and seek comfort in the knowledge that every single day this shitbag lives and breathes IN PRISON is one more day he is denied the freedom to live as a free American, the same penalty his traitorous actions were intended to impose on all of us.
That is justice! The sweet taste of everything we enjoy DENIED to him on account of his actions.
Still, if he’s shivved and raped in prison, I can live with that, too.
December 19th, 2007 at 3:25 pm“His only offense was serving in the army of Afghanistan,”
ah, throw his mother in their with him and add another 5 years
December 19th, 2007 at 4:51 pmPresident Bush should pardon Compean and Ramos.
Lindh should had been hung.

December 19th, 2007 at 5:08 pmjihad johnny’s old man is making U.S. Dollars on speaking engagements telling the story of his criminal son, they are both traitors. it’s a shame he only got 20, let him rot.
December 19th, 2007 at 5:33 pmHave him clean bedpans at Bethesda or Walter Reed-have him do that, and sleep on the floor next to Men who have DONE something.
December 19th, 2007 at 6:11 pmHe should be bunking with Timothy McVeigh.
December 19th, 2007 at 7:39 pmWhy just 20 years!!! Its not enough
December 19th, 2007 at 8:25 pmPart of the reason this guy is a traitor is because of his parents. He just didn’t get it, and obviously, his parents don’t either. Prison is too good for him. His father is a lawyer, so he’s going to try every trick in the legal book to try to get his scummy son freed.
December 19th, 2007 at 9:08 pmFighting for a foreign army is listed as treason. Lindh should thank allah our country is too spineless to frag his ass.
