You guys aren't thinking this through.

Bush, at most will be in office 8 years. Unless, of course, he pulls a Clinton and subverts a mere extra Amendment above those already done in.

There are a LOT of Clintonista's out there in both major political parties. What exactly do you think is going to happen when one of THEM gets elected with THESE powers?

YOU will be considered terrorists simply for being conservative as many Freepers are now considered potential terrorists for defending the Constitution against both parties' encroachments.

I don't dispute that that's a horror. That's the horror for eight years from now. The horror for this year is 'sleepers' with truck driving skills and Hazmat licenses. We know they are here. We have no idea where they are living, or even who they are, or what their plan is.

You are trying to argue a theoretical principle when people are facing imminent death. You cannot win that argument. Most people will dismiss you as a crank, which will make you useless when it's time to mount the actual effort to get rid of these measures. Keep your powder dry, will ya?

There are enough Bushes alone for a potential total of 24 years (W, Jeb, the nephew)
