you were warned

House passes warrantless domestic spying measure 28 Sep 2006 The House of Representatives passed a bill on Thursday that would provide congressional authorization for Dictator George W. Bush's warrantless domestic spying program but subject it to new rules [?]. The president would be permitted to order warrantless surveillance, for example, after an "armed attack," "terrorist attack" or when the president deems there is an "imminent threat." Rep. John Conyers, a Michigan Democrat, charged: "Hidden in the fine print are provisions which grant the administration authority to maintain permanent records on innocent U.S. citizens, granting the administration new authority to demand personal records without court review, and terminating any and all legal challenges to unlawful wiretapping."

Do notice the "hidden in the fine print..." part above and reread my little verse from months ago which, I've been told by someone waking up just now, that it finally makes sense concerning their former idol:


May I be a tad specific?
Mr. Bush is hitler-ific
and he takes psycho
Napoleon to heart.

With his finger on The Button
and the rest of us as mutton
putting bossy at the helm
was not so smart.

Can we fix it in a minute?
'cos we're really thickly in it
and I see no help in sight
from George the king.

If you want your rights, Miranda
swallow all his propaganda
(and a CAFTA he will hand ya)
but you won't receive a notice
'til the spring.



Now, E.N., you see I wasn't kidding...and the trap's been sprung. This week's rubberstamp legislation is your notice. And considering the administration's record at keeping records safe from hacking and theft, I'm SURE these "permanent records on innocent US citizens" will be safe as a toad in a hidey hole.

November '06 and '08: Like flies on flypaper, we must Vote Democratic--it's our only hope. Or--we can listen to George--he's only torturing at his own whim and taking away your rights for your own good. Now go back to sleep.
