Why else would anti-war activists' homes be raided?

Sounds like it's the result of an investigation that's been going on for years.  I don't think Obama is going to stop this kind of stuff. 


He's too busy trying to save the economy ......  [popcorn]

Asked if he was involved in illegal activities, he replied, "Absolutely not.''

Well, that settles it for me.

I mean, the guy would have no reason to lie, would he?

Darned jack-booted thugs!

So because they said they didn't do anything illegal that means that they did?

Of course, a man who was not arrested, much less charged, must necessarily be guilty.

People who were never charged with a crime tend to be not guilty of a crime. Funny how that works.

So wait wait wait.

Based on what information do you know this specific guy was involved with a crime?

All we know is that the FBI believes a crime might have been committed at his workplace. We don't know which ones of the several people involved are going to be suspects. Why are you certain this guy is one of them?

Sigh. Wow.  I think the point of skidmark's comment was that "Did you do anything illegal?" is a very dumb question for a journalist to ask of someone in that situation. Of course it doesn't prove guilt or innocence, it just means the subject (whether guilty or not) is not stupid enough to tell a reporter they committed a crime.
