We have always been at war with Eastasia.
You sure about that?
I thought it was Eurasia....that’s what I was reading yesterday.
Guess I didn’t get the memo from Minitrue. Better update all my files. Thanks for letting us know!
It is time for the two minutes of hate brothers!
The industrial military complex has won with this new bill. And they will use it upon the citizens of the USA.
Then the only option left to us will be to go down swinging, if go down we must. No surrender.

Really? Are you kneeling before Allah every sunrise and sunset? Are we no longer building high rise buildings?
Everyone should dust off that old copy of 1984 in the attic next to the LP’s and reaquaint themselves with it.
Are you in favor of that provision in the bill? Do you agree with Graham and McCain?
From infoplease.com
On February 19, 1942, soon after the beginning of World War II, Franklin D. Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066. The evacuation order commenced the round-up of 120,000 Americans of Japanese heritage to one of 10 internment campsofficially called "relocation centers"in California, Idaho, Utah, Arizona, Wyoming, Colorado, and Arkansas.snip
In Canada, similar evacuation orders were established. Nearly 23,000 Nikkei, or Canadians of Japanese descent, were sent to camps in British Columbia. It was the greatest mass movement in the history of Canada.snip
Legal Challenges to Internment
Two important legal cases were brought against the United States concerning the internment. The landmark cases were Hirabayashi v. United States (1943), and Korematsu v. United States (1944). The defendants argued their fifth amendment rights were violated by the U.S. government because of their ancestry. In both cases, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of the U.S. government.
They aren’t even trying to hide their intentions anymore.
The frogs are almost done boiling.
My personal favorite part of 1984 is “The Book”....The Theory and Practice of Oligarchial Collectivism, by Emmanuel Goldstein.
As I’ve often darkly joked, 1984 is meant to be a warning.....not an instruction manual.
Oh, yeah, that and Brave New World. Keep the masses happy with soma (you know, American Idol, “reality” TV) and the majority of folks really don’t give a hoot in hell what their leaders get up to, as long as the economy stays reasonably good (or has the illusion of it).
Okay, let’s round up all Muslim Americans then.
...And they occupy every office of the US Government.
...Ladies and Gentlemen, if we are at war here, it's time to port arms and fix bayonets.
You could if you specifically declared a war on "Islam." However the war is declared on "Terror" instead. -Tom
