Bush's Witchhunt Against Truth-Tellers
A Gestapo Administration
By PAUL CRAIG ROBERTS

Caught in gratuitous and illegal spying on American citizens, the Bush administration has defended its illegal activity and set the Justice (sic) Department on the trail of the person or persons who informed the New York Times of Bush's violation of law. Note the astounding paradox: The Bush administration is caught red-handed in blatant illegality and responds by trying to arrest the patriots who exposed the administration's illegal behavior.

Bush has actually declared it treasonous to reveal his illegal behavior! His propagandists, who masquerade as news organizations, have taken up the line: To reveal wrong-doing by the Bush administration is to give aid and comfort to the enemy.

Compared to Spygate, Watergate was a kindergarden picnic. The Bush administration's lies, felonies, and illegalities have revealed it to be a criminal administration with a police state mentality and police state methods. Now Bush and his attorney general have gone the final step and declared Bush to be above the law. Bush aggressively mimics Hitler's claim that defense of the realm entitles him to ignore the rule of law.

1. Exactly. How many times does this RatBastard get a pass?

Peace.

2. But fewer and fewer people are siding with him.

His arrogance is becoming known to all.

4. Well,that depends. I was in a local coffee shop today and there

were some men talking and they think everything Bush does is just fine as long as it defeats the terrorists.

And,believe it or not,I live in Massachusetts.

Some will never be convinced.

3. The naked emperor is screaming, "I DO have clothes, dammit!"

Sounds like deluded desperation to me.

Last throes, anyone?

5. I'll have you know that I have NEVER spied on American citizens

Well, not for the government, at least. :evilgrin:

But for Bush apologists who claim that he's doing what he's doing in order to stop terrorists. My only response is "prove it." How does spying on a Quaker group in Florida stop terrorism? Who's been spied on? What information has been gathered? What "terrorist" activities have been stopped? And by the way, some hare-brained scheme to dismantle a bridge in New York with blowtorches doesn't quite "cut" it, if you know what I mean.

6. The Enemy is bush; knowledgable support of him is treason.

[SammyWinstonJack]

9. I agree. nt

7. The Hitler reference is spot-on

Bush aggressively mimics Hitler's claim that defense of the realm entitles him to ignore the rule of law.

Regarding that sentence above:

I have been telling anyone who will listen (and some who won't) to remember that Hitler was ELECTED!

B*sh needs to be stopped NOW!
