Skank lawyer guilty of aiding terrorists

I knew that we lost freedoms under George Bush. I mean, everyone keeps saying we have and now I know what they mean. Lynne Stewart, lawyer for the man behind the first Trade Center bombing, was found guilty of helping him keep his terror machine oiled. Sheesh, what's the nation coming to when a lawyer can't help her terrorist client maintain his terrorist ties? Damn you, John Ashcroft! Next thing you know they are going to try to stop illegal immigration...well let's not get carried away. Upon hearing the verdict, one supporter of Ms. Stewart, attorney Matthew Strugar, immediately said he was leaving the country. Need help packing, fella?

I can't tell you how many hearts break at the thought of one lawyer going to jail, and another leaving the country. Our lives are all lessened for the losses. If we keep losing lawyers, how will fat people sue McDonalds?

"What a mess," a lawyer with the Legal Aid Society, Michael Letwin, said. "This is a chilling blow to public dissent, public dissent against the government, and the attorney-client privilege."

Ah, now I get it. Helping a terrorist maintain his terrorist links was really just a form of dissent against the government. Bin Laden isn't evil, just misunderstood. His actions were mere dissent against the US government. Well there's another right trampled by the Bush Administration. And if the Bushies are treating treason against America as a bad thing, no wonder Democrats get so upset.
