Whatever happened to the Miami 7? Remember them?
Last time Gonzo was in hot water the admin drummed up some "terrorist cell" that was a bunch of, essentially, homeless men with no capabilities to do anything.

Just sorta curious what happened with that case that was so important that Gonzo, himself, held a press conference to tout the arrests.

2. Those poor homeless assholes? Every time I thought of them, I was reminded of that
cracked out informant on "THE WIRE."

Jon Stewart had a good take on those guys: http://www.crooksandliars.com/posts/2006/06/26/tds-the-miami-seven/


    Stewart: Seven guys? I’m not a general. I am not anyway affiliated with the military academy, but I believe if you were going to wage a full ground war against the United States, you need to field at least as many people as say a softball team.
