Justice is no longer innocent the Attorney General concealed her breast baptized her in the cloth of self-awareness now she knows the nature of good and evil and must win the battle over evil no matter what the cost will he decide next to remove Justice's blindfold? then she would be able to actively seek out heretical dissenters like an inquisitor where suspicion alone will determine guilt behind closed doors Justice is auctioned at Bush campaign fundraising dinners He attended over 100 in the last year $2000 per ticket more than halfway to his goal of $170 million to buy the election in 2004 the Bush campaign even sent a letter to New York fundraisers with FAQs for the big-wig donators and one of the Q & A's read: Q: "Can I use my personal aircraft for campaign business?" A: "No, you may not use your personal aircraft for campaign business. Corporate aircraft may be used, but only if each person boarding the plane pays the equivalent of a first-class airplane ticket." (1) over 100 fundraising dinners attended but not a single funeral of the over 300 United States service men and women killed in Iraq "Bring em' on!" because Bush does not care about American lives lost as long as he can carve the Thanksgiving no-bid corporate contract turkey Justice cannot be trifled with human rights in a born-again administration Justice does not concern herself with the growing numbers of wounded and dead in the bunkers of a shadow government Justice claims to be for all — all those that have at least 7 digits in their bank account and a personal relationship with Jesus there will never be peace and human prosperity without the recognition and practice of universal human justice · · · · · ·
