Does Dick Morris proofread his columns?

He must not. I mean, if he did, wouldn't he notice the silliness of this claim?

President Obama's decision to put Khalid Sheikh Mohammed on trial in New York City along with four others accused of helping destroy the World Trade Center and attack the Pentagon on 9-11 paints a bulls-eye for terrorists right on New York City, their favorite target. Now Obama has identified where the terrorists should focus their energies - on New York City.

Um ... If “New York City” is already the terrorists' “favorite target,” why do they need a bulls-eye painted on it? Does Dick Morris think terrorists don't know where New York is? Or does he think they've forgotten what their “favorite target” is?

And don't get me started on the next sentence, in which Dick Morris offers advice to the terrorists, telling them they “should focus their energies” on New York City.

More Morris:

In any event, President Obama is affording the terrorists exactly what they wanted in the first place - a global stage right near New York's theater district.

Really? The terrorists were that concerned about their proximity to New York's theater district? I find that a little hard to believe.

Morris:

Finally, there is the disturbing question of what will happen if Mohammed and/or his some of his confreres are found to be not guilty. Where will they be released? Will they walk out of the courtroom free to prowl the streets of New York, their transportation having been paid courtesy of the taxpayers?

Now, I don't have Dick Morris' track record when it comes to predicting the future, but I'm going to offer a prediction anyway: No.
