There are people of courage and conscience out there - they need to speak up. That’s exactly what I think, Patrick. There are people of courage and conscience out there - they need to speak up.

I especially enjoyed the quote from Stimson "I think, quite honestly, when corporate C.E.O.'s see that those firms are representing the very terrorists who hit their bottom line back in 2001, those C.E.O.'s are going to make those law firms choose between representing terrorists or representing reputable firms..." Skipping past the part about 'terrorists who hit their bottom line back in 2001', which is just too horribly backwards to go into. I would hope that the CEOs would see reputable law firms trying to defend the ideal of a just nation, which the pentagon would rather forget, and want to support that defence any way they can. But I'm neither a CEO or an American, so what would I know. That is a particularly horrible instance of behaviour from a generally horrible administration.
