Time for a revolution?
George Ochenski has a chilling column in the Missoula Independent arguing that George Bush is guilty of many of the same offenses that caused the founding fathers to start a war.
Chilling? Yes. But when does it stop? Is there any reason to think that anyone that takes up residence in the White House is going to suddenly de-authorize all the programs that Dubya started? Cancel the Patriot Act? Disband Homeland Security and send all it's people back to their original agencies? Close Gitmo? Rein in CIA/FBI/NSA?
