SMA11784 discovered 10 months ago- From the page: "Who told you that the only way to fight evil is to embrace evil; by stripping away inalienable freedoms that have been guaranteed for nearly 800 years; casting aside the right of Habeas Corpus for the first time since King John signed the Magna Carta on the fields of Runnymede in 1215? Who told you the best way to deal with our enemies is through torture and coercion; forcing confessions with Soviet style precision; that "alternative" means of interrogation stops short of violating the Geneva Convention, allowing us to be the "good guys" once again? Who told you that ignoring our Bill of Rights, showing utter disdain of liberty for all the world to see, would make us safer?"
Just to be clear, I didn't write this. I just thought it deserved more attention.- From the page: "Who told you that the only way to fight evil is to embrace evil; by stripping away inalienable freedoms that have been guaranteed for nearly 800 years; casting aside the right of Habeas Corpus for the first time since King John signed the Magna Carta on the fields of Runnymede in 1215? Who told you the best way to deal with our enemies is through torture and coercion; forcing confessions with Soviet style precision; that "alternative" means of interrogation stops short of violating the Geneva Convention, allowing us to be the "good guys" once again?

- Liberalism 101 Also, to all those inane thumbs-down commenters whose only challenge to the material is they do not believe this as an actual conversation = From the page: "The following is a combination of conversations had with various individuals, put together in one account."

- All the things that I've ever wanted to say when my liberalism was dismissed as naive or unpatriotic. This is that response that my heart shouts but my mind fumbles to search for.

- Please sir, who told you that we aren't one world; that it will always be "us and against them"; that the truths we hold as "self evident" reach only as far as our borders; that all men are not created equal; that we are the arbiters of justice, the executioner's blade, and the shining example of democracy that will glow, unblemished, for the next 1000 years?
