Bush confident about First Amendment burning
"Those who herald this decision simply do not understand the nature of the world in which we live," George Bush was quoted at Camp David, in regards to his privacy violation law being shot down by a Detroit judge. Anna Digs Taylor saw through the law and condemned it as unconstitutional (based on the 1st and 4th Amendments as well as the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978). The Bush Admin have filed an appeal and the case is pending.
Why is it that the government feels they have the audacity to tap our phones and read our emails (under the clause of "terrorism prevention") yet, when you have cases like this (despite the fact that it's in the UK) people are arrested and criminalized. Why can't I tap my President's phone under the warrant of "dictatorship prevention?" I'm sure they have secrets that we, as common people shouldn't know ("For the people, by the people.") however, I'm sure I have secrets that the government shouldn't know.
We should stop condemning so called "state dictatorship" when we are turning into one.

Hey,
While the Michigan decision is no doubt a positive one, let's remember that the Supreme Court Jesters will still have their say... and in the meantime, I'm sure BringItOn will ignore the ruling!
Of course he will. Remember, he has "war-time president powers."
Up, up and away, huh?
