it’s not that we can’t win
it’s that we cannot admit to any mistake
the world is seeing America for what it is
a democracy with freedom of speech
freedom even, and most importantly,
to speak out against our leaders
the world is seeing our leaders
making exceptions to laws of their own choosing
the trial of Saddam IS
the Mother of All Trials
if we the people of the world
do not see open, ligitimate justice enacted,
we will know with a certainty
America is not a true democracy
with justice for everyone
period.
