Even the very discussion of this ancient topic make me fear US govermnent even more. Is a next regime, largely run by the Christian Crusade and fascists with special corpporate insterests, going to begin to send Democrats to concentration camps? It could happen here.
I believe that the US govenrment is using the 'Patriot Act' to spy, not only on potential terrorists, but to listen into the telephone conversations ot 100's of thousand sof left of center (left-leaning Democrats). The current government make its own rules, condemns who they want, when they want, and no longer believes "in a government for the people and by the people". Here's betting that they manage to rig the next election.
My friends and I are really uncertain, as to whether they can be stopped. They can listen into our phone conversations at any time! We are all happy Blue-State Democrats! Maybe they would learn a thing, or two.
