Lieberman undeterred
Topic: Miscellaneous 9:49 am EST, Dec 10, 2010

Yesterday Lieberman stated that companies who complied with his extra legal "request" to block Wikileaks are:

“doing the right thing as good corporate citizens.”

These companies are helping Lieberman undermine the rule of law.

"We received a phone call from a friend who is a senior member of the party. We agreed to shut down your website. You understand?"

Why have a legal system at all Joe? Why have democratically elected politicians? Why don't you and your corporate buddies just get together and decide what you want the law to be. It almost works that way now, doesn't it?

Why not ask Blackwater to be a "good corporate citizen" and detain everyone associated with Wikileaks. Who needs trials? Blackwater can just do its corporate duty and hold them indefinitely without trial as "enemy combatants." Thats already on the table, isn't it? Senior members of the Republican party seriously suggested it, didn't they? Whats the hold up? Aren't you serious about protecting this country's national security? I mean, who gives a fuck about democracy? Clearly you don't!
