Reply #5: Yup -- more evidence of consciousness of guilt and malice aforethought [View All]

[pat_k]

This bill, the actions described in http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=364&topic_id=503566&mesg_id=503566">Alberto Mora's memo (outgoing outgoing general counsel of the United States Navy) -- over and over, they acknowledge their actions are crimes. They look for cover in their fascist fantasies, but their words and actions make it crystal clear that they do not expect those fantasies to hold.

Like the felonious five did in Bush v. Gore (http://www.thenation.com/docprint.mhtml?i=20010205&s=bugliosi">None Dare Call it Treason), these people, "left their incriminating fingerprints everywhere, showing an unmistakable consciousness of guilt on their part."

malice aforethought
n. 1) the conscious intent to cause death or great bodily harm to another person before a person commits the crime. 2) a general evil and depraved state of mind in which the person is unconcerned for the lives of others.
