If we choose to violate the rights of the innocent in order to discover and act against the guilty, then we have transformed our country into a police state and abandoned one of the fundamental tenants of a free society. In order to win the war on drugs, we must not sacrifice the life of the Constitution in the battle.
--US District Judge H. Lee Sarokin

"The best way to explain the Carlyle Group is to use a euphemism that Dwight Eisenhower employed back in the 1960s, when he was leaving office. He warned the country of something called the military/industrial complex and that is probably the best way to describe what the Carlyle Group does. . . George Bush Sr. is working for this company that is the 11th largest defense contractor in the country at the same time his son is in office waging war. . . It is clearly a conflict of interest. And conflicts of interest lead to potential corruption." -- Dan Briody, ("Fresh Air," NPR, May 6, 2003)
