Perino: Shoe Bomber & Underwear Bomber are 'Apples And Oranges'

Bill Burck & Dana Perino: The Obama administration says it was justified in Mirandizing Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab because the Bush administration did the same thing with Richard Reid, the shoe bomber, eight years prior.



But the facts tell quite a different story. The Bush administration would not have handled Abdulmutallab the way the Obama administration did. Instead, it would have prioritized gathering intelligence from Abdulmutallab upon his capture, and then would have sent him to either the civilian or the military system for trial.
