Call It Democracy


Has George Bush gotten your serious attention yet?

Do you know how many civil liberties of ours he has trespassed on during the course of his presidency?

There's a new one signed into law on December 20, 2006. I just learned about it as well. These things tend to be kept a secret.

New postal law lets Bush peek through your mail

The Bush administration with the full cooperation of a stunningly negligent Republican congress (fortunately that changes today) has set down a long list of laws that also violate your rights as an indiviual. These laws compromise the rights of the individual and place the right of the state above those of the individual.

A partial list of what Bush can now do.

- Come right on into your house without a warrant.

- Decide you are an enemy combatant and therefor...

- Lock you up for as long as needed without trial or the right to know why you are being locked up. (no more habeus corpus)

- Look at what you are reading.

- Look at what websites you go to.

- Listen in on your phone conversations.

- Gain access to your medical records and your DNA.

- Declare martial law and haul you into a detention center.

Is anybody concerned yet?
