The Obama's administration's decision to try Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and four other alleged 9/11 plotters in New York City has sparked a great number of heated expressions of offense from Republicans - and may now have landed President Obama in legal hot water.Obama defended his decision on Wednesday by telling MSNBC's Chuck Todd, "I don't think it will be offensive at all when he's convicted and when the death penalty is applied to him." When Todd expressed surprise at the remark, Obama hastily corrected himself, insisting, "What I said was people will not be offended if that's the outcome. I'm not pre-judging it."Constitutional scholar Jonathan Turley chuckled over Obama's predicament on MSNBC's Countdown, telling substitute host Lawrence O'Donnell, "He certainly came across as the Queen of Hearts, calling for a sentence first and a verdict later."
