Some say the terrrrists hate us because of our freedoms. If that is true, then Bushy made have had the right idea. If we give up our freedoms, e.g. the MCA, Patriot Act, domestic spying, habeas corpus, posse Comitatus, and the consumption of hydrogenated vegetable oils, maybe the terrrrrists will leave us alone. After all didnt Ben Franklin say that "he that gives up freedom will get security". Cant argue with that logic. Arent prisoners the most secure?

Note: this post scores a minus 7 on the Intellectual Honesty Scale.
