I usually get your humor, but I still ain't getting your joke on this one. I am kind of thick that way sometimes.

Nothing wrong with old laws. Most laws are old. The problem here is that we have a chief prosecutor in Mr. Ashcroft who has no, as in zero, credibility. So, when he exercises his discretion to dredge up an old law to go after a political opponent, I assume the worst. He has been abusing his power since long before he became Attorney General. I have no reason to think this Greenpeace prosecution is any different.
