NOT GUILTY

SAINT PATRICK'S FOUR NOT GUILTY ON CONSPIRACY [story] Each of the four was found guilty on lesser charges.  How the four are sentenced remains to be seen.  War remains, protests will continue so long as justice has a last breath in one who will not lose hope.

WHAT WE HAVE HERE is best said by attorney Bill Quigley:speaking for Clare Grady:

This is a simple case of government overkill; this is a simple case of the abuse of government power; this is a simple case of the government trying to take a simple case of non-violent protest and make a "federal case" out of it.

The government is calling these four people arrogant and unlawful and dangerous.

These four people could have stayed home and watched shock and awe on tv. They could have said this is somebody else's problem. They had jobs and kids and school and church -- just like the rest of us -- but they were peacemakers. What does the bible say? Blessed are the peacemakers. [link]

AMEN. Faith is challenged in a time of war. Faith in god and faith in man suffer the slings and arrows, faith suffers bomb blasts of the scientific sun, faith endures the napalm fires of hell. War is an evil on this earth, a necessary evil preached by the powerful. Some say no.  War is inevitable, so warn the warriors.  Some say no.

SOME SAY NO.  Some say no to death in war and yes to the living. Who will listen? War comes in shouts of courage, but ends in the bleeding out of innocence. Some say yes, this killing must end.  Amen.

That's some of the best news I've heard in months, Heretik. It seems the winds are shifting ... I heard one columnist for the NYT say last night that there was a techtonic plate shift to the Left going on, all over the country, in the aftermath of Katrina, and Rita, and the quagmire that is Iraq and Afghanistan -- that America is slowly waking up to the fact that we have an incredibly inept administration [at the helm and the country is crashing into the rocks. (me)]

More good news: our grubby govnah, has come in second as most unpopular governor (first is Taft, of Ohio,) and will not be providing belabored and brow-beaten Alaskan residents with a repeat performance.

Yay to the Peace Keepers! Hooray for the subsiding effects of Lethe and the drowsy fields of flowers outside the Emerald City! Here's to more Cowardly Lions finding their hidden bravery and voices, broadcasting their angry roars!

Amen.

I would ask Shrub this: which is more dangerous - a group of peaceful people protesting a war or the person who is capable of starting said war?

[Cernig]

Sheehan has been arrested and Musharraf of Pakistan has said he isn't interested in catching Osama.

Priorities, Georgie?

Well, that depends - dangerous to who?

When you don't have rules only the poor are guilty and go to prison innocent or not. Is normal in a third world system.

And some say Give Peace a Chance.
