Lynne Stewart is a terrorist and a traitor and ideally she should have received the death penalty.
That wasn’t the way the pantywaist Clinton-appointed Judge John G. Koeltl saw it in 2006 when he sentenced the radical anti-American lawyer who became a willing participant in an Islamic terrorist plot to a mere 28 months in prison-a fraction of the 30-year term the government sought.
But things have changed. The septuagenarian Stewart has been resentenced, this time to a 10-year prison term. It’s about bloody time.
Note that some blogger and media outlets have been describing Stewart, an avowed Maoist, as a terrorist sympathizer. While it is certainly true that Stewart sympathized with terrorists, such a description does not get to the heart of her misdeeds.
Stewart violated federal prison procedures for dangerous offenders such as her client and deliberately conveyed orders from the client to his murderous terrorist group in Egypt. In doing so she became a terrorist in her own right and back in the good old days would have been put to death, as her fellow traitors the Rosenbergs were.
If there is any justice in this world Stewart will live out the rest of her natural life behind bars where she belongs.
I wrote about Stewart’s treachery in Human Events in 2006.

It would be more fun if she were in solitary with the lights on ALL THE TIME.
Matthew Vadum | 7.15.10 @ 6:49PM
Maybe a new Circle of Hell should be invented in which she could be waterboarded for eternity.

... Stewart is too old and too female for sledgehammer work? then KP for her.

Lynne Stewart said that she could do her original sentence "standing on her head", but I wonder if she can do her new 10 year sentence standing on her head too? I don't think she can do it, because she's pretty, Ummm how do you say fat, without saying fat? Oh yeah, she's of pretty ample proportions, and I think her neck would snap in less than a minute if she was standing on her head. She really should have just kept her big mouth shut and not pissed off the Judge, but I'm glad she did though.
Goodbye funny traitor lady!!

"Ummm how do you say fat, without saying fat?"
Ample? porcine? BBW? roly poly? love handles? a woman of immense substance? a towering figure?

If a movie is made about her I recommend Ed Asner be cast as Lynne Stewart. The resemblance is striking.

It couldn't happen to a more worthy traitor. These whackos who hate their own country don't appreciate it until they lose their freedom. Or their rights are trampled on. Remember when Bill Ayers (self-proclaimed Communist) ordered a reporter off of his "property"? Delicious irony.

she deserves the needle and eternity in hell

Lynne stewart is a case study on how the Left and terrorism merge. Her life and associates should be required study in order to understand and combat such influences, individuals and organizations that support them. That should be the legacy of Lynne Stewart.
Don Carlson| 7.16.10 @ 9:25AM
Isn't Ms. Stewart an avowed communist-in-favor-of-violent-overthrow-true-believer? I have several acquaintances just like her. Basically, she is one of the brain-dead-anti-Americans so common among the country’s professional mediocracy. Well, I don't think she should be tortured, the poor old woman, just hanged---as an example and warning for President Obama, Mrs. Pelosi, Madame Reid, Monsieur Kerry, Master Barney Frank, and all their friends in Boston and Berkley—and, of course, my friends.

She is a traitor and deserves the most gruesome death.
She should be followed by the Pakistani NY Times Square bomber who just recently told his judge that his moral Muslim duty was to kill American kids, the more the better.
Scum.

It is not a crime to be a Maoist, nor is it dishonorable to provide our enemies with a vigorous criminal defense (John Adams). It sounds as if you are all becoming sexually aroused as you contemplate what you consider appropriate punishments.

she should not have signed the SAMs
that was her mistake
they would have had to let her represent him anyway
since no other lawyer would take cass
