Thanks, good post.

It's clear that Congress would have declared war after the September 11th attacks, except they didn't know who to declare war against. It's clear too that they have supported the Administration's response to date.

"I don't know Luis, but it looks to me like a huge power grab by the DOJ that can be used against all Americans for any activity that the Feds deem to be in their interests to contain."

Nothing that hasn't happened before; nothing that won't happen again.

This is when we are up at bat, we have to challenge the government, it is our duty. That's the system set up by the Founders.

The Founders couldn't have possibly envisioned a world where all politicians are honest, and have the best interest of the nation in their minds, so they gave "We the People" the tools to challenge them.

Those tools are seldom used, we are immersed in the day to day business of life, and we sit back and yell about "those idiots" in DC; gotta stop sitting there, and gotta start doing our yelling through the Courts.

By the People, for the People, of the People.
