I just saw Devil's Advocate on TBS, and, well, it may not mean much, but it was something that caught my eye.
During the next to last scene in the movie, when Al Pacino's character reveals to Keanu Reeves' character his plans, Keanu asks Al why lawyers as the key ingredient? Now, I'm not associating Edwards with the antichrist - it's the point that Al makes afterward that really caught my attention:
"We're coming out! Guns blazing! You two (Keanu and his character's sister), acquital after acquital after acquital until the stench reaches so high (it suffocates them)."
I couldn't help but hear that statement and look at our current government. For those responsible for so much death, destruction, and misery here at home and abroad, there has been no accountability, no one sent off to jail, no one punished for their crimes, which they rightly are. People like Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, Feith, Cheney, and many more. It's almost as if for each new revelation about their plans and actions are made public, they are being acquited for it daily. It's terrifying that the actions of those who are supposed to be the moral clarity of our political discourse could be setting the stage for our own apocalypse. For most of you, it may not come as a surprise - but this statement made from a movie about an attempted coup of the world by the devil makes my spine chill.
We have got to win this election and make certain these people are brought to justice, or we may be not ever be able to seal the gates of hell that are starting to be unleashed on everyone.
