Rock Throwing Lawyers

So I've been reading the front page, just like you, and have been struck by the sight of Pakistani lawyers, in business suits, in the streets, throwing stones and Malitov cocktails at the Army that is attempting to repress all dissent and send all of the intellectuals to prison. Dubya has been holding hands with the "President" since 911 in the naive hope that this guy will help crack down on Al Queda and "find Bin Ladin". Ofcourse, we've pumped millions upon millions of dollars into this guy's pockets(clearly it's political payola), we're no closer to captuirng Bin Laden and now, by aligning America with a fascist anti-democratic dictator, any fool(except Dubya) can see that we'll only increase fresh Al Queda recruits by the tens of thousands. Oh and did I need to point out the obvious---Pakistan has NUCLEAR WEAPONS WITH AN EFFECTIVE DELIVERY SYSTEM??
But I digress. The point of my entry this morning, young people, is to hope and pray that,when the current group of modern day American fascists start cracking down on dissent in this country by suspending our constitution because of the next "security crisis", my brothers and sisters at the Bar will have the courage and soul to stand up and fight for our constitutional liberties.
Ofcourse, that might risk things like making mortgage payments, funding college funds, taking kids to ballet lessons, missing "American Idol",going shopping....
