The video has a lot of footage from Boston Legal and has various images to illustrate a point about how our government is eroding civil liberties. At the end there is a listing of various losses of freedoms that have already been put into effect.
Even if you may disagree, watch the whole thing anyway as the first few minutes aren't at all like the last few minutes, then I'd like to hear all of you guys opinions, agree/disagree, partially agree, partially disagree, love it / hate it.

BTW: I may be considered to have a liberal-bent and such. I of course disagree with many things Bush and this current administration does. However despite my dislike of some of our government policies, and even though I wish people would protest wrongdoing more often than they do these days, I strongly am opposed in anyway to any protest that would include violence and strongly support only peaceful protest.

This series starts off with a bunch of liberals hanging on to diplomacy even as the nukes are falling, the military saves the few lives that are left and they start a new................

Boston legal may well be the most liberally biased TV drama. Good source for the post. That is like going to ALGore for science on man made global warming.

And that makes it wrong?
I long for the day when partisans stop saying "he's a biased conservative, therefore he's wrong." or "she's a biased liberal, therefore she's wrong." Neither statement is proof that you are right. Stop being lazy.

Quoting MDorBust (Reply 1): If we as the "American People" were okay with Abu Grabass why did we ensure those people got punished for it?
Nonsense. They punished the little fish, but they let the big ones go. It was a joke of a punishment. Why do the superiors who knew of the occurences and Abu Ghraib not get punished as well? They are responsible for stopping it, they are responsible for EVERYTHING that goes on under their watch- unless it was one isolated incident involving one or two soldiers. This was not. This was known about, and this was criminal.
And as far as the video goes. I have never heard truer words. When will America stand up? We'll stand up when we stop buying into politics of fear...
