"Democracy", Afghanistan style

I thought the Taliban was gone. Guess not.
Afghan Christian convert may be freed

Now here's what I can't stand, and here's the reason why I started this blog (part of the reason, anyway). How can Condelezza Rice stand there and say that Afghanistan "has a constitution that embraces democracy rather than the autocratic mandates of the Taliban", when the only reason this Christian convert MAY be released and not executed is only if he's declared mentally incompetent to stand trial. (Can't you just hear the Afghan Muslims talking: "He converted to what? He must be crazy!"). So, if he's not mentally unfit, then BY AFGHAN LAW he should be executed.

I just want people to do a little analysis of what they hear. ANALYZE, and then you will get closer to the truth. Then you will see that this is not Republican-bashing, or Bush-bashing, or "skepticism". You'll realize that YOUR ARE BEING MISLEAD. And you should be upset, because it is costing the lives of our brothers and sisters.
