When GWB goes out of office and when a DEM goes in the sheeple will realize just how much they have allowed government to take over. Then it may be too late.

What makes you think these new excesses of power will only become dangerous in Democrat hands?

Naivety?

Nah, all will abuse power. The GOP , Dems, Constitution Party, Libertarians, Reform, Greenes, ect. That's the way I feel about it. None are above corruption that power tempts them with.

It's a charge to We The People to make certain those we elect are worthy to hold office and if they fail in their oath it's our duty to punish them by withdrawling support {votes} to them.

Now I hope that those who call me Bush Basher will understand where I come from. I don't think I left out anyone's party but perhaps the Communist Party which goes without saying is the end to freedom.

indeed, it's not the political party that corrupts... it is the power.

The corruption of the democrat party is the RESULT of the power they have weilded for seventy years. To the degree that pubbies have had power, they have been corrupted as well.

ANY ideology can corrupt if it gains enough power and holds it long enough... look at the "christian" spanish inquisitions and the burning of the anabapatists... POWER corrrupts and distorts all it enables, we must strove to see that it is held by the individual, instead of central governmental bodies in order to be held in check.

The more decentralized power is in its concentration, the more difficult it is to corrupt.

This stuff by bush won't stop or hinder terror... and is getting at something else. One world? Alien Invasion? I dunno, but the drive for a large one world control of every aspect of our lives, is on full throttle.

BUSH is wrong to seek power at this level.
