What do you think about Dershowitz point in this CNN panel?
Remember that he says "there is a difference between good policy and consitutionality. I don't like the <executive order>, but..." I may not have this quote exact. I find it a very interesting point and I hope we can discuss such stuff on DU. If you think Dershowitz qualifies as pusing right wing memes, then take my post as sharing the opinions of his opponent.

Indeed, the court said that the “unusual media hype” and the international repercussions that accompanied the case from the moment that Ms. Kercher, 21, was found dead in her room in the university town of Perugia on Nov. 2, 2007, led to a “sudden acceleration” in the investigations to find potential suspects “to consign to the international public opinion,” which “certainly did not assist in finding the truth.”
