The Drew - before you get upset with me, know that I do not support what has gone on, and that I do not blindly support "W".
What I would like to see, though, is that "W", et al, is held responsible for relevant happenings, not what people think.
Here's an interesting
legal analysis by Prof. Orin Kerr. This was found by TFL Staff member "Antipitas", who is a lawyer if memory serves:
My point, The Drew, is that there is too much unknown at this point. It's entirely possible, moreso probable, that most persons in this and other threads ranting about broken laws and constitution toilet paper, really don't know what the hell they're talking about.
I'm only asking that we wait to understand what has really happened before we wrap ourselves in the flag, make a kevlar out of the constitution, and start firing our evil black rifles at the capitol.
