Let me help you understand.

HRC is a power-mad woman who has made it clear that anti-abortion protesters are TERRORISTS.

Under the current law (the Patriot Act,) the AG or President can determine that 'terrorists' may be held for extended periods without trial.

Don't think for a minute that HRC would hesitate to use the power of the State against a particularly devoted protester. Must I remind you of Waco? There were at least 40 US citizens who were flat-out executed without trial, and against whom NO CHARGES COULD BE PREFERRED: they were children.

Bush and Ashcroft I trust, at least so far. The rest--well, I don't.

Your analogy is lacking. For the situations to be analagous Congree would have to draw up a resolution, pursuant to the War Powers Act????, declaring right to lifers as the enemy in a war. Clearly nutty.
