The current resident of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. will exploit 9/11 in any way he can to foist the neocon version of 1984 on all of us. The New York Times is reporting that W is using the memory of September 11 to further expand the powers of search and seizure - already made overreaching by Patriot Act I (with the sequel soon at a theater near you!) and to increase the use of the federal death penalty.
Ashcroft and the emperor in chief are pushing hard to make the U.S. a police state in the name of the "Never Ending War on Terror". Unless... unless Congress gets off its ass and performs its constitutional duties of oversight. Can anyone say "checks and balances?" And of course Congress will not act without pressure from other than the usual deep pocketed suspects. See the link over there to the right: Tell your congressperson to Vote to Impeach Bush.
Go. Go now.
Are you still here?
