Anyone watching Boston Legal
And how W chose that Gitmo prisoners have No rights, either under our Constitution or the Geneva Convention? He can keep them in limbo for their lifetimes.
With no charges and no proof.

How does that make you feel about being an American under the W regime.

1. I haven't felt good about being an American since the morning
of November 22, 1963.

5. Boy, the US must look really shitty compared to those days
I remember people saying back during Viêtnam that they had optimism, a feeling that we could change it for the better. They said they were gonna stop the military-industrial complex. Today, that kind of optimism about the future is gone, but the complex is still there and still very strong if not stronger.

11. I felt the future would be good.
I was confident I could let my heroes bring in a new world and I could make poetry and insightful conversation in coffee houses. I had no thought they would slay my heroes and that I had to go out on the streets myself and that those old smoky existentialist coffee houses would be shut down for the rest of time. And all those conversations with them.

7. I love Boston Legal! Every week they address another issue.
Sometimes it's subtle, and sometimes, like tonight, not so much!

I'm actually surprised ABC is letting them get away with this. GLAD...but surprised.
