11. They need to start getting their opinions on the record now, then
Obama, Hillary, heck, even McCain - they need to start stating unequivocably that this, and other Bush admin transgressions against the Constitution are what they are now, or they will be in the trap.

Simply put, it's unAmerican to try someone in a Kangaroo Court with evidence beaten out of him, with the only possible endings being guilty=swift hanging and aquitted=back to Guantanamo to rot until we try you again (heck, we got rid of habeas corpus and ex post facto, why not throw out double jeapordy?). Even Iraq put on more of a show of fairness in trying Saddam.

I hear the candidates talking about how Bushco policies "aren't working". That's not nearly fucking good enough. Bushco policies are often illegal, unconstitional, unfair, and unAmerican.
