"Our Very Own Fascist Government"
From Citizens Against Lies
Here is the list of the Democrats who must never be allowed to be public servants again.
Carper (D-DE) Johnson (D-SD) Landrieu (D-LA) Lautenberg (D-NJ) Lieberman (D-CT) Menendez (D-NJ) Nelson (D-FL) Nelson (D-NE) Pryor (D-AR) Rockefeller (D-WV) Salazar (D-CO) Stabenow (D-MI)
We must never vote for these people again, ever. They violated their oath of office and suspended habeas corpus, the fundamental cornerstone of democracy. They have OK'd torture and rendition programs and betrayed the American people by allowing us to be declared enemy combatants at the discretion of George W. Bush.
The "Military Commissions Act of 2006" is actually a sick piece of work.
The Act Is Available Here.
Some reaction to it, other than above, by Robyn Blumner in the Salt Lake Tribune, the first paragraph of which is below:
Flanked by the panjandrums of shame and the dirty hands gang, including the current attorney general and the vice president, President Bush last week signed into law the Military Commissions Act, a law that will go down in history as an obscenity against liberty and decency.

This is rediculous! I can't believe a "DEMOCRATIC" government could even consider passing a law like this. (I'm still reading the act...)
As we all know, many non-militants were caught up in the dragnet and brought in with taleban and al qaeda forces from Afghanistan. Now those people will lose their rights as well, caught up in the Military Commissions Act.
We should be fighting hidden enemies not our own rights.
We have no rights anymore.
So, farewell then, Constitution.
Military Commission Act is Unconstitutional.
Military Commissions Act Guts Constitution.
