So the government is cracking down on freedom of the press. 

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060521/ap_on_go_ca_st_pe/prosecuting_reporters

It’s amazing how many ‘freedoms’ we have to give up in the name of national security.  I believe this country got by for over 200 years before the Bush Gestapo came into power.  Only three more years and hopefully we get a sane person back in office who respects this country and the people.

Wow! That’s the first I had heard of this!  My biggest worry is that a LOT can happen in 3 short years. Look how much damage Bush did in just his first 4.
As for getting rid of him after this term is over… you wait and see. He will probably try to get elected for a third term using this rationality:
“Well, after all the law states that I can only get ELECTED to the office for two terms. I was appointed the first time around, so that doesn’t count…”


“George W. Bush has been compared to Hitler, when in truth he is NOTHING like Hitler… but if he applied himself….”

So now all they have to do is claim that anything they don’t want us to know about is somehow related to national security, and we’ll never hear about it…

I teach history and government in my day job, and I’m telling you: People should be WAY more worried about the things that are going on than they are.

Yeah, I’m kind of freaked out that the press has almost ignored this issue.

It amazing how much closer we’re getting to China, people it seems we’re too afraid to go to war with and yet they have the greatest abuse of…actually, I’m not going to go there. You know what I mean.

And yet, Karl Rove gets nothing. This is nonsense.
