Martini Republic » America wins one: "America did lose in many cases in which, after the sucker punch of 9/11, it responded by suspending its usual cumbersome attempts to administrate justice. America lost much, indeed, since 9/11—it lost with warrantless wiretaps, with the blowing of its own spies by politicians, with an accelerated march to war on trumped-up charges, for which, ironically, as many have now died as in the terrorist attack. But America did not lose the Moussaoui verdict—life in prison—not at all. America indeed wins whenever it can still put justice not in the hands of the government, which can be famously capricious when administering justice, but in the hands of We The People, which are the only words on the Constitution writ especially large."
