I don't believe that I said I approved of the way the case is being handled or the fact that there hasn't been a trial yet...I did say that by appealing the decision they're following the law exactly as Paul Copeland said and I happen to agree with his statement... My feeling isn't that the outcry should be because they're appealing the decision but it should be because this has taken far to long. Where's the government's insistence on a trial? There must be some sort of leverage we can use to ensure a quicker end to this fiasco. There needs to be more pressure especially considering the circumstances of the case (allegations of torture etc).

What I'm sick of is a gov't that ran on a platform of integrity and all that other b.s. is rife with such problems as the ones we've seen. It also makes me suspicious that perhaps this sort of thing was covered up in previous gov'ts...but one will never know.

At the risk of giving Capitalist some ammunition, I find myself wondering why no matter who gets voted in to lead this country, there is always some kind of corruption or hype going on. It leaves little time to actually govern the country. Question periods are full of children demanding that other children step down and they get yelled at to shut up and booed etc... Is it possible to have a House full of mature adults discussing matters that actually pertain to the country as a whole without needing to discuss allegations of corruption etc?
