Bravery Amongst Cultists

Affidavit: Fearful 16-year-old bride made late-night call – CNN.com

I think this story is far from over.

One of the most interesting things to watch, here in Utah, is how the media asks questions. Not about the safety or the well-being of the kids, but about the possible violation of civil rights. While this is a valid and interesting part of the story, where were these same questions when habeas corpus was suspended under the Bush/Cheney regime?

The obvious lack of morals and troubled history around polygamy in Utah is becoming more obvious as the strong response by Texas continues to reveal. This story also underscores a Utah conservative paradox; Bush is awesome, but wait, they are violating human rights here. Fascinating.
