1. Or at least that's what the pre-speech reports said he's going to push |

He's just been beating the 9/11 drum so far.

3. I was watching Johnny ONE Note |

kayrist....in two years you would think this asshole could come up with another speech. I'm so sick of "smoke 'em---smoke 'em out" and how we are winning the war on terrorism, etc. HEY FUCKHEAD while you're giving the speech they are showing the new video of bin Laden just released with him romping through the mountains and the stock market plunging after it came out about an hour ago. Yepper, you are winning alright....another myth, just like the myth that you are really a president.

4. Yes, I was watching Kephra and I hoped someone would |

do a post as I was too busy at the time to do so. One thought that crossed my mind was that this is the beginning of a police state. I didn't catch if he meant that all police under differenct venues like municipal, county sheriffs and state police would be put under the auspices of one overshadowing big brother agency, but if it is, then we are moving toward nazification of our nation faster and faster.

some terrorist crimes that result in death don't qualify for fed death penalty. Terrorists shouldn't be able to hide from ULTIMATE JUSTICE.
A lot of members of congress believe we should close the loopholes.
House and Senate have responsiblity to act quickly
...fight and win the war on terror...nation saw the face of a new enemy...took fight to the enemy. making progress in every front..every front...in this war.

10. Is he proposing the death penalty... |

...for sabotage of oil installations? Sure as hell sounds like it. He's so full of shit. What the hell is this? Is this the gambit to introduce the "Victory Act"? This is sick.

14. Judy Woodruff is doing her best Bush whoring... |

...in badgering a Democratic congressional guest (Ed Markey). This is revolting. Greater powers for HIM and HIS ADMINISTRATION, don't say it's greater powers for "Amurika" Judy...
