When I Decide Who To Vote For

Rights Are Not Self-evident. They're Not Unalienable. They Are Subject To Modification Just Like Anything Else.

The Threat Of Mutually Assured Destruction Worked For The United States During The Cold War Because It Had Proved Its Willingness To Drop Nuclear Bombs On Enemy Cities At The End Of World War Ii. It Might Work Less Well For Israel, Because The Israeli Air Force Has Never Deliberately Targeted A Large Civilian Population Center, And Its Leaders Have Said Its Morality Would Not Permit It Do So.

I Have Made A Career Out Of Arguing That We Shouldn't Be Criminalizing Political Differences. I've Made A Career Out Of Arguing That The Grand Jury Is An Abusive Institution. I Have Made A Career Out Of Arguing That We Shouldn't Stretch And Expand The Criminal Law. I'm Not Going To Change It Because You Think These Are Abnormal Times. When Thomas Jefferson Told The Justice Department That They Had To Prosecute Aaron Burr, And That He Was Going To Have The Chief Justice Impeached Unless He Found Aaron Burr Guilty, Those Were Special Times Too.

It's Never Acceptable To Target Civilians. It Violates The Geneva Accords, It Violates The International Law Of War And It Violates All Principles Of Morality.

I Think Most Defense Attorneys Honestly Believe The Principle That Says, 'better 10 Guilty Go Free Than Even One Possibly Innocent Person Be Convicted.
