"I swear, if Clinton was in charge now FR would be a very, very different place. Everyones tagline would include the words "police state" at least twice."

Yeah, but since Bush is in charge, we'll all just wait until the DemonRats are running things to protest the nascent police state. But by then it will be too late, won't it?

I'd love to see what Hillary!'s administration would do with all the power we've given the government. She'd make the Bush administration look like pussycats. (Disclaimer: I voted for Bush, so please don't give me crap about being a leftist Bush hater. I happen to like Bush...oh, wait, that came out all wrong... [grin])

I don't blame the cops at all, since they were following a [false] lead by a cell-phone caller.

An innacurate report by a witness, plus the natural lack of cooperation from a journalist, will create this situation any time.
