The Truth Shall Set You Free

Not if you're a resident of Guantanamo. This summer the courts 'freed' the Uighurs. Earlier this month the Bosnians were 'freed'. 'Freed' means that they were declared not to be terrorists or enemy combatants. It does not mean that they can leave the prison.

Land of the free? Rule of law? Innocent until proven guilty? Rule of habeas corpus? They're all just words in today's America.
