Watching the behavior of the Democrats who will accept no amount of evidence contrary to their accusation that George Bush somehow did not fulfill his obligations to the National Guard, I have to say that I would much rather be tried in a court of law, than the court of public opinion.

In a court of law you have the presumption of innocence. The burden of proof is on the accuser. The prosecution must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that you actually did that you are accused of doing.

In the court of Democrat Party opinion, accusation is enough to establish guilt. It is the burden of the accused to prove their innocence beyond all unreasonable spin. Your statement of innocence is irrelevant. The first proof you present will be dismissed as inadequate. The second will be dismissed out of hand. Even if you present every piece of evidence of your innocence that could possibly exist, they will still question.

I think that if the heavens parted and God Almighty spoke unto them to them, and told them of Bush's innocence, they would wonder if the Conservative Christians of the RNC put him up to it.
