[Vision2020] stop the false accusations against Sunil

Believe me, the author of the drivel below is someone I'd like to avoid 
engaging, but the repeated and unfounded accusations against Sunil need to 
be condemned, and I do.  Joe is right -- while it's always wrong to accuse 
people of wrongdoing when there's no cause or proof, it's especially 
dangerous in this day and age.

Sunil has not "stated repeatedly" anything of the sort.  Stop it, Donovan.

Sunil has stated repeatedly, that he believes that if we cannot find  each 
and every terrorist guilty of a crime by a trial, we should let  them go. 
Since it is not possible to try every terrorist and get a  conviction, and 
he knows this, and we cannot detain them otherwise,  Sunil is suggesting we 
let many of them go. I think that is supporting  the terrorists. Creating a 
situation where the US military cannot  defend us by placing the new and 
unprecedented restriction of a trial  and conviction for every foreign enemy 
combatant shooting at us before  we can lock them up until the conflict is 
over, cannot be anything but  favoring the enemy.

  I think that Sunil is dead right in his  disagreement with Bush on foreign 
policy for opposing torture.. But  deadly wrong in making sure every enemy 
of the United States gets a  full paid trial on us before we can defend the 
country.

   Best,

post responses to Donovan after Roger's comments a couple
of weeks ago, but I'm sick of his crap.  First he and now Tony have made the
irresponsible and incorrect statements that I support terrorists or
terrorism; certainly Donovan has made the claim that I only defend
terrorists and sworn enemies of the U.S.

I have tried to explain to Donovan offline with no success that I oppose the
prison in Guantanimo; I oppose the war in Iraq; I oppose the torture of
prisoners and the abandonment of the Geneva Convention; I oppose this
administration's foreign policy.  As far as I know, we're still allowed to
object to our govenrnment's actions.  If he wants to say that means I defend
terrorists, then he's going to do that, but he's not going to be able to
defend his lies with anything I've said.

I do object to Donovan's lies about me.  I think he's making dangerous and
irresponsible statements about me, and I don't think I should have to sit
here and put up with them.  Sure, I could say no one takes anything he says
seriously, but I have no idea who might come across his swill and believe
it.

I never mentioned Tony's wife in my post.  If Donovan read that in my post I
have to question his literacy.

Tony told me I was not allowed to change the subject, and I made the
apparently incomprehensible joke that he mistook himself for my wife.
Donovan, get your big reading book and look up 'pronouns.'  I did not and
would not make fun of Tony's wife.  I don't know if he's married and don't
care.

Tony, I have never said I think I'm intellectually superior to you.  Quit
being so sensitive.  I won't be comparing myself to Lincoln, and I'm no
fancy pants lawyer.  I don't think of myself as one, and I don't think I'm
better than anyone else because I'm a lawyer.  But if you make incorrect
statements about a legal issue, after a while I'm going to point that out to
you, as I did with your First Amendment statements some time ago, and as
with your recent statements about freedom of expression.

Sunil
