(62,325 posts)Liberals, real Liberals, have taken the trouble to research and have some serious questions about it, BASED ON THE EVIDENCE, and NOT on anything else, are going to continue as they should, to ask pertinent questions?
Rather than, because of a hatred of Wikileaks and all it represents, freedom of information eg, sometimes not convenient to governments who want to keep secrets, as is the case with people like say, Sarah Palin and other Right Wing defenders of the Bush War Criminals, who are more than willing to convict Assange without a shred of evidence, because you must know there has not been a shred of evidence proving any of this so far.
My observations are that there are those who want to see the end of Wikileaks and any semblance of a real independent media, and it is they who are refusing to look at the evidence at all, and calling anyone who does in an effort to try to silence them, 'rape apologists' among other things.
I have news for them, you can call me anything you want, but it won't work. Only evidence of guilt will convince me this is not a political witch hunt.
So go ahead, call me a 'rape apologist' if you want, it will not have the slightest influence on my asking questions and reviewing the evidence which so far is not on the side of the prosecution.
