Surely one of your loony left websites has been able to "discover" some by now. I have no loony left websites. As far as I know, web sites are apolitical. On a more serious note, I'd like your opinion. For the sake of argument, say there ARE a lot more bits of evidence showing really horrible acts. Do you fell it right or wrong *if* the evidence is covered up or slowed down in release to limit damage to GW in an election year? mike MII, Actually the 'logic' goes just the opposite.

I don't know anything about Marx (unless you mean Julius Marx). I do
enjoy thinking like an anarchist libertarian from time to time; I was fired from Pacifica for being too right wing. I actually think I am opposed to the prevailing power structure. Therefore, if the Nazis are in charge, I must be a liberal (subject to change).

How is it possible that news/information can be manipulated this way by EITHER side? If it's there, it should be out in it's entirety. Why doesn't the Bush side release everything in one go then, to stop the slow 'leaks' by the opposing camp? News is meant to be heard, not played with for political gain. That may well be why a lot of folks started listening to shortwave to begin with. Even as a kid I thought the truth lay somewhere between what Washington and the Kremlin said...mind you, sometimes they BOTH stretched things beyond belief. mike |

The release of pictures and due process don't necessarily either go together nor are they necessarily mutually exclusive. Pictures of crime scenes are often shown in the press. Popular opinion rarely enters into jury deliberations to any significant degree. I will, however, agree with you on one point... if a person is supposedly innocent until proven guilty, as one is supposed to be in our judicial system, then their name should not be released to the press unless and until they are found guilty in a court of law. Many innocent people's reputations have been ruined because of a high profile criminal case (at least in their local area). Also, there is a section in the Constitution prohibiting excessive bail... but excessive bail seems more the rule than the exception anymore. I have read cases where a burglar has to post $20,000 bail.. if they had that kind of money in their wallet (or even their bank account) they most likely wouldn't be burglars... |

20000 bail is 2000 cash out of pocket. 10% is typical for a bail bond.
That's why they set it so high. I agree with you about publicizing ones name before they are proven guilty. In any case, "innocent until proven guilty" is just a saying, it has no basis in fact. If it were true, why is it that, if a jury can't decide if you are guilty or not (hung jury), they can try you again? If "innocent until proven guilty", their inability to prove your guilt should default to a not guilty verdict, not the legal equivalent of a "do over". "Brenda Ann Dyer" wrote in message ...

In any case, "innocent until proven guilty" is just a saying, it has no basis in fact. (snipped) I believe the French and Mexicans among others, use a version of Napoleanic Law, where it's assumed the cops had a good reason to arrest you and therefore it's up to you to prove your innocence. Same as Guantanamo, except not quite as impossible. **COURTS** are available under Napoleanic law. I note with interest that some puppet of the US had set up a PRIVATE jail/torture centre in Afghanistan. He claims to have been in communication with Rumsfeld on a daily basis. May God save us from this version of 'Democracy'. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main...2/ixworld.html For the 'bent' URL crowd: http://tinyurl.com/4zphx mike |
