Liz Cheney on O'Reilly Factor Tonight

Howdy all!  I know it has been a while and I apologize.  Nevertheless, we are getting back on the horse and shouting from atop our noble steed as we race through the Town Square:

Liz Cheney will be on The O'Reilly Factor tonight!  Check your local listings; however, the typical time is 8:00pm and 11:00pm EST. 

On a side note, some nugatory little post was recently added to the Santa Monica College: Corsair website about Mrs. Cheney.  The author's main point?

Terrorists have killed people and spread terror, just like criminals do. They deserve legal representation
Furthermore, the author makes the point that:
Some Republicans chose to ignore the word "all" in the Sixth Amendment. They believe that right should be only for American criminals. But as stated in the Bill of Rights, "all" deserve counsel.
Surely someone might remind our friend out west that the Constitution is a binding document between our government and the governed, and not our government and the entire world.  If the term "all" is to be applied in that way, we are going to have a difficult time fighting wars where we do not have the benefit of 'trying' a terrorist before we kill him while he is driving a car bomb through a security checkpoint.
