Constitution.Rule of Law.Integrity of the Nation.How we treat those who are accused and defend those who are indefensible strengthens our Democracy.And above all that -- I'd like to see some actual EVIDENCE that isn't tainted or coerced. The head of the 9/11 investigation said their report was full of holes and misinformation. A trial is a good place to find truth.... though don't worry, it's likely not to have REAL justice, so these guys will be convicted. Moral outrage about the attack is cheap and easy -- so let's not pretend that the people MOST outraged are the MOST American. Every Lynch mob ever thought it was in the right. But getting the BAD GUY is not the most important thing for society -- conducting ourselves well is.Why do I have to tell people this so much? What happened to our nation?
If you let the other side dictate the terms of the debate, they also determine its outcome. Can't ignore the stream of lies from the Right.
