Day: June 29, 2006

Ponder this.

Nancy Pelosi released this statement following the U.S. Supreme Court decision on trying Guantanamo detainees.

“Today’s Supreme Court decision reaffirms the American ideal that all are entitled to the basic guarantees of our justice system. This is a triumph for the rule of law.

“The rights of due process are among our most cherished liberties, and today’s decision is a rebuke of the Bush Administration’s detainee policies and a reminder of our responsibility to protect both the American people and our Constitutional rights. We cannot allow the values on which our country was founded to become a casualty in the war on terrorism.”

Translation…

‘If you plan terrorist attacks against America, if you kill Americans in a successful terrorist attack, if you kill our troops in Iraq or on any battlefield, we, the Democratic Party, will defend your right to be defended.’

In Pelosi’s world, that means these guys (if still alive) would have deserved the same U.S. Constitutional rights you and I share.

Do you agree?

 

Heh.

Defamer congratulates the crack team of web programmers at ABC who, in less than 24 hours, successfully erased every mention of Star Jones from their website. Apparently though, the web guys over at Star’s site aren’t nearly as efficient.

UPDATE: NOT SO FAST…Star found in back alleys of ABC.COM
