Rule of Law! Rule of Law!
From Will Hickman’s blurb of Original Sin: Clarence Thomas and the Failure of the Constitutional Conservatives -
I wonder how Will Hickman feels about the detention of Jose Padilla, and Bush’s no-warrant wiretaps. After all, we wouldn’t want the word of law to rule the people.In the end, Marcosson gives two visions of democracy: in one, the word of law rules the people; in the other, representatives of the people bend the law to their will. Neither is perfect, but the latter is closer to justice.
