One of...Right on the money with this one, Buckeye. One of the things that makes me admire John Adams tremendously is the fact that he decided to defend the British troops in a Boston court who were accused of shooting into a crowd during the "Boston Massacre." (The HBO miniseries about Adams did a nice job of telling the story). The public was outraged, and similarly accused him of "sympathizing" with the British tyranists. In fact what Adams was doing was showing the world that the country we were trying to develop was going to be based on justice, fairness, and the rule of law. Everyone -- even guilty terrorists -- have the right to due process and a fair trial. If they are guilty, a jury will convict them. However, if it is a case of mob rule overtaking the rule of law and an innocent man who happens to be British or Muslim being accused of acts he didn't commit, a proper legal defense will protect him. I'll leave you with a quote from Adams:<br />"Representative government and trial by jury are the heart and lungs of liberty. Without them we have no other fortification against being ridden like horses, fleeced like sheep, worked like cattle, and fed and clothed like swine and hounds."<br />-- John Adams, 1774<br />Trial by jury doesn't exist without a proper defense and due process of law.Attorney Andynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2760353953251845523.post-19848158540931138542010-03-19T05:00:19.061-04:002010-03-19T05:00:19.061-04:00Why the need for law, attorneys and such?!?!

You will notice ...I agree with you Buckeye Surgeon. You will notice that the advocates of torture frequently refer to its use on "terrorists" as opposed to "detainees." <br /><br />Jingoism, which became ever more prevalent after 9/11, has led too many Americans to abandon our national values and the concept of holding our government's employees accountable for their behavior. <br /><br />After WWII we prosecuted Japanese soldiers for waterboarding prisoners of war. Now Dick Cheney will openly admit we have waterboarded detainees.<br /><br />What is truly amazing to me is that there is no evidence that torture works better than interrogation techniques, which leads me to believe that the people who engage in it are directing their anger about 9/11 at whoever they can attack.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14554247026371385456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2760353953251845523.post-6912837654077010752010-03-18T20:56:27.079-04:002010-03-18T20:56:27.079-04:00The new boss has policies the same as the old boss...The new boss has policies the same as the old boss. Only the new boss is very articulate and intelligent and he has charisma. Drink the kool aid and everything will turn out great. Obama is down with Gitmo, torture, peace prizes for fighting wars, bailing out bankers, rendition, but I should trust him to pass legitimate healthcare reform? Really Michael Vick, really, you were going to try to smuggle that through airport security, really. That must be some good stuff. Obama, Bush, 45th president, same, same, same. What do I propose?
