Due Process, Habeas Corpus, the Geneva Conventions and Sarah Palin
Read the following statement from Sarah Palin's speech last night at the Republican convention.

"Al Qaeda terrorists still plot to inflict catastrophic harm on America ... he's worried that someone won't read them their rights?"

Now read it again.

It's dismissive and glib.

It tells us a lot more about Palin - and none of it good.

13. She said that line with a real snarl,
and had a very self satisfied look on her face after she said it.

Of course the Puke faithful cheered like mad.

It is just sickening, but there it's red meat to the Puke base. I hope that the independents see through it, though.
