What if someone wanted to make you disappear for what you think or say in public. All they have to do now is frame you for "terrorism" in some way. What then? Really, now whatcha gonna do? How you gonna prove you are being framed and are just a dissident? Call out and face your accuser? Nope not anymore. Talk to the press? not anymore. Talk to your lawyer? not anymore. Have your day in court? Have a timely hearing, a fair hearing? Anyone framed for terrorism now has no rights.
Actually with the latest piece of NAZI tyranny passed by the democrat-controlled congress, they are criminalizing 'violent speech'.
Look up Jose Padilla. He was arrested and then declared an enemy combatant and held in a military brig and subject to psychological 'no-touch torture' (sensory deprivation) for three years until he went insane.
His crime? Nothing. Just some 'fairly loose talk' (D. Rumsfeld).
YEAH, and when he was finally released to domestic courts, the gov't claimed they "misplaced" his interogation video. That's about as cool as the supreme court refusing to hear and thereby backing up the gov't hiding behind the "state secrets" privilege after abducting and torturing El-masri simply because he was a muslim.
Google "bills of attainder." Ask your congressman if he/she can tell you what the constitution says about bills of attainder.
it's sad allright, america is one of the worst coutrys to live in and ironicly they call it "the land of the free" - AHAHAHAHAHA americans need to wake up from their american dreams. oh well, at least they're far, far away(thank christ)
Vote Ron Paul in 2008 and this garbage will get repealed. Remember, if you are not republican you need to register as a republican to vote for Ron Paul. You can always switch back to your party after the electin.
No law or statute can override the constitution, dumbass. If your idiotic and misrepresentative analysis were true, it would be instantly challenged in court and if found to be against the constitution would be struck down. This is how the three-branch government works.
that's the way it's SUPPOSED to work, yes. but, that's the point! it's NOT working that way. the republican party has effectively dismantled this system.
The flags displayed in State courts and courts of the United States have gold or yellow fringes. That is your WARNING that you are entering into a foreign enclave, the same as if you are stepping into a foreign embassy and you will be under the jurisdiction of that flag. The flag with the gold or yellow fringe has no constitution, no laws, and no rules of court, and is not recognized by any nation on the earth, and is foreign to you and the United States of America.
Once again, the federal government sets out to remind us who's fucking who. It's not enough for them to take away our rights: they're taking away our DESIRE for them. It won't be long until they start STAGING terrorist attacks to keep us just afraid enough to WANT to give up our freedom so we can live with our heads safely buried in the sand. Better enjoy what little freedom you have left while you have it...
Waterboarding may not leave marks on the body. But the truth about it, say veterans, is not a few minutes--but hours and days--of dunking the head of someone strapped to a board underwater until they actually choke, swallow water and drown--die--and then medics standing by revive the victim via cpr and we kill this person over and over until we get a confession.
Democracy is not what leads a country to freedom and justice. Righteous leadership is what leads a country to freedom and justice. We need freedom to reign again, ..but I don't think it will without a revolutionary effort on the part of the those who live here.
Ya know, for the first time, this installs fear even in me. I'm an American. I'm beginning to think that perhaps we SHOULD reclaim this country. The government that America has is being TAKEN. I don't think even BUSH has the ability to fix this alone. I see a much bigger war....Can the American people take back America from the Government? TAKE A STAND. I KNOW I'M NOT ALONE HERE. D'AFK KING was here!
this is very real, its the 2006 Millitary Commissions Act, aka 'the torture bill'... I work in washington for a Democratic Senator, and all i can say is that the day bush signed this bill, a couple weeks ago, will go down as one of the saddest, most shameful days in US history... everything this country has worked tword for the last 200 years signed away in a single penstroke by one of the worst leaders this world has ever seen... truely sad, RIP Habius Courpus
They monitor our communications and have removed our unalienable constitutional rights, we soon will all have "papers, please" federal ID cards with computer chips in them. At what point do you see the sheep who think they are americans to protest? Maybe when our friends and relatives start disappearing in dawn raids for the "crime" of dissent?
This was covered in the news in Norway. I have US friends who know less about whats happening over there than we do in my country. The news in the US seems to be controlled by politicians. Whats happening in the US. Are you changing out christian values to policestate values. We dont need a new Soviet Union.
Speak up, so people hear it! Dear people, open your eyes! The developements along with the "War against terror" and "Security" anwhere in the western coutries are chewing up the democratic fundaments of our societies. After centuries of struggle for freedom.
You know what was covered in the media instead?! The Foley sex scandal, a blatant cover up to this HUGE news. Congress passed the bill in the senate 65-35. I fear that corruption in our government is now beyond Bush, his administration, the Republican Party, and into the Democratic party. Something along the lines of a revolution is necessary, I must say.
Eight hundred years of progress, beginning with the Magna Carta, errased with the stroke of a pen. It ends, not with a bang, but with a wimper. Nobody there with you to mark the death of democracy.
Wow, your sense of humor is so dry that it has become brittle, disintegrated in to dust, and has blown away with your hot air.
The material's fine, it's the concept, it's execution, and the delivery that really suck.
Sorry.

Nyprogressive's words echo
Through the empty capitol grounds
On the way to tortuous prisons
Where heard are horrible sounds
Now those hideous night screams
Endlessness will not cease
'Cause
"...you could not take part",
in the means
To make a loving peace
