Paralyzed jihadist + PC government = Some real breaks

Major Nidal Malik Hasan, the suspected gunman in the Ft. Hood bloodbath that killed 13 people, is alive and awake. And, it turns out, he's paralyzed.

That's right. He's a paraplegic right now.

Now, how much do you want to bet our politically correct government -- the same one that kept him in the Army even though the FBI knew of his jihadistic leanings for at least six months -- will cut him some more slack?

If you want to know the last time a paraplegic was executed, I can't help you there. I can't think of any. In fact, you can bet he's not going to be the first; he'll get a pass on that. He might even catch some real breaks in his trial because of the injuries he received in the commission of a crime.

What's more, you can bet Hasan will get a lot of medical care while he's alive, and a serious effort will be made to restore function to the lower half of his body.

And you'll be paying for it.

Well, here's a comfort. Jihadists believe they'll be greeted in their afterlife by a whole mess of virgins. But in his current state Hasan won't be able to do much of anything except maybe stare at them.

OK, I feel better already.
