an equitable and moral system of profitable peacetime jurisprudence?

Dear Thomas the RHymer, the question's absurd,
Outré and passé, like a quaint Dodo bird!
Morality, equity, even ideals
Are lost in the windstorm, 'til the public mind reels!

Due process, farewell! Bill O' Rights, fond adieu!
Consitutional balance, we're coming for you!
We don't want misgivings, or calls of "psychotic!",
And we'll lock up the skeptics as unpatriotic!

A nation of law? Where freedom is certain?
An ingenue's dream, say those back of the curtain.
We don't need no morals! We're hunting for terror!
And we'll find it, or make up our own, make no error.

So put away whining, depraved, base, and tearful!
It's the Land of the Slave, and the Home of the Fearful!
