STUPID LIBERAL SOFT-ON-CRIME QUOTE OF THE DAY



"Quite frankly it bothers me as a lawyer to see members of our Congress, in their inflection and their tone, suggest there's something wrong with taking the Fifth. It's a right we all have. It's a precious right. And if they think only the bad guys take that, they're wrong."

Who can guess which bleeding-heart ACLU member offered up this gem to the Houston Chronicle when asked about Enron executives invoking the Fifth Amendment before congress?

That's right, Johnny Holmes, longtime Houston district attorney who sent more people to death row than any other prosecutor. Hmmm, maybe there's something to this Bill of Rights business.
