I find Jane Madden's choice of words not only un-American, but also unconstitutional. If she had a once of middle school social studies, she'd know that anyone and everyone in America is entitled by the Constitution to Habeas Corpus. That doesn't make everyone Al Quaida; it just sets the standard of equality. Does she even know what Habeas Corpus is? Just in case she doesn't, it's an edict that says a person is entitled to know who his/her accuser is and what that the charge is. Of course the Supreme Court will uphold that since it's been in force for over 200 years, since the American Revolution was won! The British used to take colonialists and put them in jail indefinitely for no explanation or due process. Not only is this rant yellow journalism, it misinforms the public, which is unethical and irresponsible. Furthermore, if there are any facts in her "report," or rather, her "rant," then she diminishes their validity by her untruths and her misinformation. Shame on you! As a representative of the journalism community you have a responsibility to report the "objective" facts. Shame, Shame on you, Jane! You diminish all journalists by your lies. A partial truth is a lie, plain and simple, and that is what I have always taught my children and my students. Redeem yourself and set a good example by being truthful. Also, all indicted people have a right to representation. Many of those lawyers have been drafted and appointed without their choice and input. How about putting that in your "report" or rant? You obviously don't because it would diminish your bigoted and un-American opinion. The laws are not just for the elite or the entitled....they are for ALL Americans, and those who have emigrated here, of whatever religious denomination. The true breach or crime of everyday people is that too many of us are apathetic or complacent about what is happening in the world, not ignorant of it. Most people are suspicious of extremist reporting or ranting. And in the end, most people know that this "report" is a lie. It's so sad that you choose to be untruthful when you actually can be a force for good. Tell people to scrutinize the facts fairly and truthfully. In the end, the right decision will emerge from the facts...Just think of the lesson highlighted in Shakespeare's play about Julius Caesar; in the end, those who assassinated Julius Caesar paid for their crimes and Marc Anthony lead Rome by seeking Truth. And isn't that what the Judao-Christian ethic is all about? I grew up on Superman and Batman comics: Truth, Justice and the American Way. I hope you can reach those high goals in your "reporting" in the future.
