Hello Elliot:
Loving a government that wants to put you away for many years ain't too logical in my book. But, of course, I've got all my faculties available.

Excon,
>>>There are 16 Moslem nations in the Middle East; not one of them is Democracy. <<<
Well, now there are 3. Iraq, Afghanistan, and Turkey. And the truth is that FUNDAMENTALIST Islamic law is not compatible with Democracy. But there are plenty of Muslims in the USA who do fine in a Democracy. Same in England, France and other European countries. Democracy is not incompatible with Islam. It is only incompatible with the uncompromising nature of FUNDAMENTALIST Islam.

Maybe the difference between you and Rush is that Rush wasn't guilty of anything, and trusted the system because he knew that the system would work. YOU were guilty of your crime, don't trust the system, and believe that it doesn't work. That is why he loves his government, and you don't.

Hello again, El:
Surprise, surprise! I don't think the Limp one is guilty of anything either.
But we're not talking about what you, or I or Rush thinks, here. We're talking about what the government thinks. And the government he loves doesn't agree with him, or you, or me, and wants to throw him in the slam for a good long time.
Blind faith in government is one thing. But, to sing their praises at the very same time they are trying to throw your ass in jail, ain't too logical, still. Half his brain, and both of his eyes. Let's see if he sings the same tune after he gets released.
Oh, you think because he's innocent, he won't get thrown in the slam? And, who told you I was guilty of anything?

Excon,
>>>Oh, you think because he's innocent, he won't get thrown in the slam? <<<
I think HE believes that. He believes in the system. And chances are that he's right. He won't be thrown in jail for anything.
>>>And, who told you I was guilty of anything?<<<
You did, in another conversation (or several conversation) several months back. You admitted being guilty (though we never discussed what you were guilty of, and I have no great need to know), and said that you had done your time. You even admitted at one point that you believed that your sentence was fair. At the time, you said that it wasn't the sentence you had an issue with, it was the abuses that take place in prison that you were against.
I may not be all that much to look at, but my memory for trivial details like that is very strong. Analysts like me LIVE for the details.

Yeah, well maybe they through me in the slam, but I'm innocent, I tell ya, I'm innocent.
