"You are either with us or against us"

We do seem to recall a certain angst (rightfully so) in ever-thoughtful leftish circles regarding such absolutist statements when made by the previous US administration regarding a different topic.

Will the lefty angst repeat itself now:

As President Obama said, "If financial institutions won't cooperate with us, we will assume that they are sheltering money in tax havens and act accordingly."

So much for those quaint quirks of American jurisprudence. Little things like "due process" and "innocent until proven guilty". Never forget, fairness now trumps all.
