Well, Bush II's regime hasn't exactly played nice with his own people, I guess we shouldn't expect him to play legally with terrorist either.
I know a lot of people will condemn me for even considering the rights of accused terrorist, but think for a momment. Has one of these accused terrorists been tried and convicted yet? Not to my knowledge. In fact some have finally be set free because there was no evidence to try them.
Call me a terrorist sympathizer. Call me a bleeding heart liberal.
I prefer to think of myself as a Humanitarian.
Now I will climb down off my soap box and get back to my silly self.
