Gitmo’s indefensible lawyers: A case study
Early on in the Bush administration, the enemy combatants detained by the United States at Guantanamo Bay became a cause of the left. In particular, they became a cause of the American bar, which is itself a subset of the institutional left. From the American Bar Association, to the elite law firms, to [...]
New Missile Defense Agency logo - ‘Obama Inspired’?
This looks strangely similar to the Obama 2008 campaign logo, don’t ya’ think!
