WAR ON TERROR?

G W BUSH ,
DICK CHENEY,
DONALD RUMSFELD,
ALBERTO GONZALES, IS THIS YOUR IDEA OF "WAR IN TERROR"?

WATERBOARDING

IS TORTURE HUMANE?
THIS PAST WEEK, GOVERMENT OFFICIALS WERE DEBATING THAT WATERBOARDING (DROWNING BY DEGREES) WAS NOT CRUEL. WHEN IS INFLICTING PAIN AND CAUSING ASPHYXIATION CONSIDERED ACCEPTABLE?
NOW, OUR ADMINISTRATION IS TRYING TO IGNORE THE GENEVA CONVENTION, AND CHANGE THE DEFINITION OF TORTURE. WE NOW SEE OUR GOVERNMENT RETROGRESSING TO MEDIEVAL STANDARDS WHEN IT RELATES TO TREATMENT OF PRISONERS, WHICH NOW "THEY" ALTERNATE WITH, ENEMY COMBATANTS.
DOES THIS REMIND ANYONE OF THE INQUISTION? THAT TYRANNICAL SYSTEM UTILIZED BY THE EUROPEAN FEUDAL KINGDOMS. DOES THE LAND OF THE FREE NOW PROMOTE CRUEL TORTURE, AND PERSECUTION WITHOUT DUE PROCESS?
HAVE WE FORGOTTEN HOW WE BECAME THE HAVEN FOR THE OPRESSED?

HERE'S MY DILEMMA: PARENTS ARE FORBIDDEN FROM (CORPORAL) DISCIPLINING "THEIR" CHILDREN;
YET, THE GOVERNMENT AUTHORITIES HAVE THE RIGHT TO PUNISH, TORTURE, AND (KILL)EXECUTE.
HAVE THE SERVANTS OF THE PEOPLE BECOME MORE EQUAL, THAN THE PEOPLE?

CHANGES TO THE TEN COMMANDMENTS

The papacy has attempted to change the law of God. The second commandment, forbidding image worship, has been dropped from the law, and the fourth commandment has been so changed to authorize the observance of the first instead of the seventh day as the Sabbath. But papists urge as a reason for omitting the second commandment, that they are giving the law exactly as God designed it to be understood. This cannot be the change foretold by the prophet. An intentional, deliberate change is brought to view: "He shall think to change times and laws." The change in the fourth commandment exactly fulfills the prophecy. For this change the only authority claimed is that of the church. Here the papal power openly sets itself above God. The claim so often put forth, that Christ change the Sabbath, is disproved by His own words. In His sermon on the mount He declared: "Think not that I am come to destroy the law or the prophets; I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. Whosoever therefore shall break one of these commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of Heaven; but whosoever shall teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of Heaven." [Matthew 5 : 17-19]

IRS REGULATIONS VS THE CHURCH

“The IRS has succeeded in gagging Christians.”
Rev. D. James Kennedy* has stated:
“The federal government has proved a tremendous impediment to the ongoing work of Christians. In all the laws that they have passed against Christian schools, gagging the church, taxation, and all kinds of things that they have done, they have made it harder for the church to exercise its prerogatives and to preach the gospel.

"Take the last presidential election. There were numbers of things that I knew that I was never able to say from the pulpit because if you advance the cause of one candidate or impede the cause of the other you can lose your tax exemption. That would have been disastrous not only for the church, but for our school and our seminary, everything. So you are gagged. You cannot do that. The IRS, a branch of our government, has succeeded in gagging Christians."

Acceptance of State favors has, indeed, had "disastrous" consequences on the churches in America. The church has been effectively silenced (or as Dr. Kennedy put it, "gagged"). Now the disastrous consequences are being felt by the entire nation.
Is there a remedy? Yes! The church can be re-empowered and regain the former glory and influence she once knew in America. But in order to do so the church must stop acting as an underling, as a subordinate, as a dependent, of the State. The church must cease asking for State favors.
Because that for his name’s sake they went forth, taking nothing of the Gentiles. (3John 1:7)

FALLEN ARCHANGEL

How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, Son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.
Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.
Isaiah 14: 12-15.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Arqangel caido: (En Espanol)

Como caiste del cielo, oh Lucero, hijo de la manana! Cortado fuiste por tierra, tu que debilitabas a las naciones.
Tu que decias en tu corazon: Subire al cielo; en lo alto, junto a las estrellas de Dios, levantare mi trono y en el monte del testimonio me sentare, a los lados del norte: sobre las alturas de las nubes subire, y sere semejante al Altisimo.
Mas tu derribado eres hasta el Seol, a los lados del abismo.
Isaias 14: 12-15.

SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE

“A more certain way to attack religion is by favor, by the comforts of life, by the hope of wealth; not by what reminds one of it, but by what makes one forget it; not by what makes one indignant, but by what makes men lukewarm, when other passions act on our souls, and those which religion inspires are silent. In the matter of changing religion, State favors are stronger than penalties.”

The Spirit of the Laws, Baron de Montesquieu (1748)

NEW WORLD ORDER

WHY CAN'T WE ALL, JUST GET ALONG?
WORLD GOVERNMENT IS NO LONGER SCIENCE FICTION. IT IS THE MODUS OPERANDI, AND MODUS VIVENDI OF THE DAY.

WE FIND OURSELVES AT THE BEGINNING OF THE CENTURY AT THE THRESHOLD OF THE McDONALDization OF THE WHOLE PLANET. GARGANTUAN MULTI-NATIONAL CORPORATIONS HAVE TARGETED THE WORLD FOR THEIR CONQUEST. TO FACILITATE THIS END THEY HAVE CO-OPERATED WITH OTHER "ONE WORLD PHILOSOPHY FANATICS", TO TRANSFORM THE PRESENT AUTONOMOUS STATES INTO BLOCKS OF FEDERATIONS; THEREFORE RESTRICTING THE AMOUNT OF HEADS OF STATES THAT NEED TO BE CONVINCED INTO CONSOLIDATING THEIR INTERESTS FOR THE "INTERNATIONAL" COMMON GOOD. IT'S PRESENTED TO THEM LIKE IT WILL BE ONE BIG HAPPY FAMILY.
INTERNATIONAL BANKS, PETROLEUM CORPORATIONS, AND ARCHER DANIEL MIDLAND TYPE ORGANIZATIONS, SEE THE WORLD AS THEIR "OYSTER"; SHELL ALSO SEES IT THAT WAY. IS THIS THE MUCH TOUTED, "COALITION OF THE WILLING"? WELL, THEY ARE RIGHT. THEIR WEALTH AND INFLUENCE REACHES ALL THE CORNERS OF THE GLOBE. 40 YEARS AGO, AFGHANISTAN WAS VIRTUALLY UNKNOWN, NOW IT'S A HOUSEHOLD WORD. BROWN & ROOT AND HALLIBURTON HAVE BEEN ASSURED OF WORK PROJECTS (THERE) FOR DECADES; AS A RESULT OF THE RECENT POLICE ACTION. COMING TO THINK ABOUT IT; IT IS ONE BIG HAPPY FAMILY.

WORLD GOVERNMENT HAS LESS TO DO WITH ETHNIC OR CULTURAL SIMMILARITIES; BUT, PROPENSITY TO BEING BRIBED OR EXTORTED BY THE CONGLOMERATES OF THE WORLD WHO RUN THE PLANET. A FEW YEARS BACK, THERE WAS A POPULAR CLICHE THAT SAID: "WHEN GENERAL MOTORS SPEAKS EVERYONE LISTENS". THAT WAS THEN, NOW WE HAVE THE MILITARY INDUSTIAL COMPLEX PLUS A MYRIAD OF OTHER PLAYERS THAT "FIGHT" FOR THE ATTENTION OF A CAPTIVE AUDIENCE, A.K.A. THE WORLD.

YES, WORLD GOVERNMENT IS HERE. ALONG WITH THE WORLD RELIGION. THAT'S THE ONE THAT STRESSES THAT WE MUST ALL GET ALONG, AND NOT KNOCK ANYONE ELSE. YOU KNOW, ECUMENISM. OR, AS I PREFER TO CALL IT E-COMMUNISM. ENGELS, MARX, LENIN, AND MAO, COULDN'T HAVE COME UP WITH A BETTER PHILOSOPHY. REMEMBER THE THRONGS OF CHINESE WAVING THAT LITTLE RED BOOK? ISN'T ALL THIS DIALOGUE AND CONFORMITY BEGINNING TO REMIND YOU OF "THE OPIATE OF THE PEOPLE?"

YOU CAN KEEP YOUR WORLD GOVERNMENT! GIVE ME THAT OLD TIME RELIGION. I DON'T NEED THAT PROLETARIAT, CONSUMER, NO CHILD LEFT (TIM LAHAYE) BEHIND, GUFF. I DON'T NEED IT. AND AS LONG AS I'M ABLE, I'LL VOTE WITH MY POCKET. (Until I won't be able to buy or sell.)

THE IMAGE

WHEN THE CHURCHES OF OUR LAND, UNITING UPON SUCH POINTS OF FAITH AS ARE HELD BY THEM IN COMMON, SHALL INFLUENCE THE STATE TO ENFORCE THEIR DECREES AND SUSTAIN THEIR INSTITUTIONS, THEN WILL PROTESTANT AMERICA HAVE FORMED AN IMAGE OF THE ROMAN HIERARCHY.
(THE GREAT CONTROVERSY Page 240 {1884} Ellen G. White)

PILGRIM'S HAVEN

HERE'S A PROFOUND QUESTION:
IF THE PILGRIM FATHERS WERE TO ARRIVE TODAY SEEKING RELIGIOUS AND CIVIL FREEDOM: WOULD THEY FIND SHELTER HERE?

JACOB'S TROUBLE

ALAS! FOR THAT DAY IS GREAT, SO THAT NONE IS LIKE IT: IT IS EVEN THE TIME OF JACOB'S TROUBLE; BUT HE SHALL BE SAVED OUT OF IT.
---JEREMIAH 30: 7


WOE UNTO THEM THAT DECREE UNRIGHTEOUS DECREES, AND THAT WRITE GRIEVOUSNESS WHICH THEY HAVE PRESCRIBED.

TO TURN ASIDE THE NEEDY FROM JUDGMENT, AND TO TAKE AWAY THE RIGHT FROM THE POOR OF MY PEOPLE, THAT WIDOWS MAY BE THEIR PREY, AND THAT THEY MAY ROB THE FATHERLESS!

AND WHAT WILL YE DO IN THE DAY OF VISITATION, AND IN THE DESOLATION WHICH SHALL COME FROM FAR? TO WHOM WILL YE LEAVE YOUR GLORY?

WITHOUT ME THEY SHALL BOW DOWN UNDER THE PRISONERS, AND THEY SHALL FALL UNDER THE SLAIN. FOR ALL THIS HIS ANGER IS NOT TURNED AWAY, BUT HIS HAND IS STRETCHED OUT STILL.
---ISAIAH 10: 1-4

ENDUE US WITH POWER

ENDUE US WITH POWER, OH, ENDUE US WITH POWER,
QUICKLY, LORD, QUICKLY, SO LATE IS THE HOUR;
DARKNESS O'ER ALL THE EARTH FALLS LIKE A PALL,
MULTITUDES, HUNGERING, EARNESTLY CALL;
SHALL WE BE STAYED BY OUR PLEASURES OR CARE
FROM GIVING THE WARNING THEIR SOULS TO PREPARE?

ENDUE US WITH POWER---WE ARE COLD LIKE THE DEAD;
O FILL US WITH FIRE FROM THINE ALTAR INSTEAD;
MAY WE BURN; MAY WE SHINE; MAY WE GLOW WITH A ZEAL,
A PASSION FOR SOULS THAT IS TRUE, THAT IS REAL;
ENDUE US WITH POWER---WE ARE WAITING, WE WAIT,
QUICKLY, LORD, QUICKLY, THE HOUR IS LATE.

----MARGARET W. LOCKE

THE LAST HOUR

"THE LAST HOUR"
THE SUNSET BURNS ACCROSS THE SKY;
UPON THE AIR ITS WARNING CRY
THE CURFEW TOLLS FROM TOWER TO TOWER.
O CHILDREN, 'TIS THE LAST, LAST HOUR!

THE WORK THAT CENTURIES MIGHT HAVE DONE
MUST CROWD THE HOUR OF SETTING SUN,
AND THROUGH ALL LANDS THE SAVING NAME
YE MUST, IN FERVENT HASTE, PROCLAIM.

THE FIELDS ARE WHITE TO HARVEST. WEEP,
O TARDY WORKERS, AS YE REAP,
FOR WASTED HOURS THAT MIGHT HAVE WON
RICH HARVESTS ERE THE SET OF SUN.

WE HEAR HIS FOOTSTEPS ON THE WAY!
OH, WORK WHILE IT IS CALLED TODAY,
CONSTRAINED BY LOVE, ENDUED WITH POWER,
O CHILDREN, IN THIS LAST, LAST HOUR.

-----CLARA THWAITES.

SIGNS OF THE TIMES

AND AS HE SAT UPON THE MOUNT OF OLIVES OVER AGAINST THE TEMPLE, PETER AND JAMES AND JOHN AND ANDREW ASKED HIM PRIVATELY. TELL US, WHEN SHALL THESE THINGS BE? AND WHAT SHALL BE THE SIGN OF WHEN ALL THESE THINGS SHALL BE FULFILLED? AND JESUS ANSWERING THEM BEGAN TO SAY,
"TAKE HEED LEST ANY MAN SHALL DECEIVE YOU: FOR MANY SHALL COME IN MY NAME, SAYING, I AM CHRIST; AND SHALL DECIEVE MANY. AND WHEN YE SHALL HEAR OF WARS AND RUMORS OF WARS, BE YE NOT TROUBLED: FOR SUCH THINGS MUST NEEDS BE; BUT THE END SHALL NOT BE YET. FOR NATION SHALL RISE AGAINST NATION, AND KINGDOM AGAINST KINGDOM: AND THERE SHALL BE EARTHQUAKES IN DIVERS PLACES, AND THERE SHALL BE FAMINES AND TROUBLES: THESE ARE THE BEGINNINGS OF SORROWS. BUT TAKE HEED TO YOURSELVES: FOR THEY SHALL DELIVER YOU UP TO THE COUNCILS; AND IN THE SYNAGOUGES YE SHALL BE BEATEN: AND YE SHALL BE BROUGHT BEFORE RULERS AND KINGS FOR MY SAKE, FOR A TESTIMONY AGAINST THEM. AND THE GOSPEL MUST FIRST BE PUBLISHED AMONG ALL NATIONS. BUT WHEN THEY SHALL LEAD YOU, AND DELIVER YOU UP, TAKE NO THOUGHT BEFOREHAND WHAT YE SHALL SPEAK, NEITHER DO YE PREMEDITATE: BUT WHATSOEVER SHALL BE GIVEN YOU IN THAT HOUR, THAT SPEAK YE: FOR IT IS NOT YE THAT SPEAK, BUT THE HOLY GHOST. NOW THE BROTHER SHALL BETRAY THE BROTHER TO DEATH, AND THE FATHER THE SON; AND CHILDREN SHALL RISE UP AGAINST THEIR PARENTS, AND SHALL CAUSE THEM TO BE PUT TO DEATH. AND YE SHALL BE HATED OF ALL MEN FOR MY NAME'S SAKE: BUT HE THAT SHALL ENDURE UNTO THE END. THE SAME SHALL BE SAVED.
BUT WHEN YE SHALL SEE THE ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION, SPOKEN OF BY DANIEL THE PROPHET, STANDING WHERE IT OUGHT NOT, (LET HIM THAT READETH UNDERSTAND,) THEN LET THEM THAT BE IN JUDEA FLEE TO THE MOUNTAINS: AND LET HIM THAT IS ON THE HOUSETOP NOT GO DOWN INTO THE HOUSE, NEITHER ENTER THEREIN, TO TAKE ANY THING OUT OF HIS HOUSE: AND LET HIM THAT IS IN THE FIELD NOT TURN BACK TO TAKE UP HIS GARMENT. BUT WOE TO THEM THAT ARE WITH CHILD, AND TO THEM THAT GIVE SUCK IN THOSE DAYS!
AND PRAY YE THAT YOUR FLIGHT BE NOT IN THE WINTER. FOR IN THOSE DAYS SHALL BE AFFLICTION, SUCH AS WAS NOT FROM THE BEGINNING OF THE CREATION WHICH GOD CREATED UNTO THIS TIME, NEITHER SHALL BE.
AND EXCEPT THAT THE LORD HAD SHORTENED THOSE DAYS, NO FLESH SHOULD BE SAVED: BUT FOR THE ELECT'S SAKE, WHOM HE HATH CHOSEN, HE HATH SHORTENED THE DAYS. AND THEN IF ANY MAN SHALL SAY TO YOU, LO, HERE IS CHRIST; OR, LO, HE IS THERE; BELIEVE HIM NOT: FOR FALSE CHRISTS AND FALSE PROPHETS SHALL RISE, AND SHALL SHEW SIGNS AND WONDERS, TO SEDUCE, IF IT WERE POSSIBLE, EVEN THE ELECT. BUT TAKE YE HEED: BEHOLD, I HAVE FORETOLD YOU ALL THINGS. BUT IN THOSE DAYS, AFTER THAT TRIBULATION, THE SUN SHALL BE DARKENED, AND THE MOON SHALL NOT GIVE HER LIGHT, AND THE STARS OF HEAVEN SHALL FALL, AND THE POWERS THAT ARE IN HEAVEN SHALL BE SHAKEN. AND THEY SHALL SEE THE SON OF MAN COMING IN THE CLOUDS WITH GREAT POWER AND GLORY. AND THEN SHALL HE SEND HIS ANGELS, AND SHALL GATHER TOGHETHER HIS ELECT FROM THE FOUR WINDS, FROM THE UTTERMOST PART OF HEAVEN. NOW LEARN A PARABLE OF THE FIG TREE; WHEN HER BRANCH IS YET TENDER, AND PUTTETH FORTH LEAVES, YE KNOW THAT SUMMER IS NEAR; SO YE IN LIKE MANNER, WHEN YE SHALL SEE THESE THINGS COME TO PASS, KNOW THAT IT IS NIGH, EVEN AT THE DOORS. VERILY I SAY UNTO YOU, THAT THIS GENERATION SHALL NOT PASS, TILL ALL THESE THINGS BE DONE. HEAVEN AND EARTH SHALL PASS AWAY: BUT MY WORDS SHALL NOT PASS AWAY. BUT OF THAT DAY AND THAT HOUR KNOWETH NO MAN, NO, NOT THE ANGELS WHICH ARE IN HEAVEN, NEITHER THE SON, BUT THE FATHER. TAKE YE HEED, WATCH AND PRAY: FOR YE KNOW NOT WHEN THE TIME IS. FOR THE SON OF MAN IS AS A MAN TAKING A FAR JOURNEY, WHO LEFT HIS HOUSE, AND GAVE AUTHORITY TO HIS SERVANTS , AND TO EVERY MAN HIS WORK, AND COMMANDED THE PORTER TO WATCH. WATCH THE THEREFORE: FOR YE KNOW NOT WHEN THE MASTER OF THE HOUSE COMETH, AT EVEN, OR AT MIDNIGHT, OR AT THE COCKCROWING, OR IN THE MORNING: LEST COMING SUDDENLY HE FIND YOU SLEEPING. AND WHAT I SAY UNTO ALL. WATCH". MARK 13: 3-37 {KING JAMES VERSION}

BROKEN AMERICA

THE SITUATION HAS TAKEN A TURN FOR THE WORSE FOR THE UNITED STATES. ONE ASPECT IS, ITS WAR AGAINST TERROR IN IRAQ; WHERE IRAQUI MILITIAS ARE MAKING DESPERATE MOVES TO TAKE CONTROL OF MAJOR CITIES. EVEN PRESIDENT BUSH IS SAID TO BE READY TO RECONSIDER THE WAR TACTICS. MEANWHILE, THE UNPOPULAR "STAY THE COURSE" WAR IDEOLOGY HAS MET WITH STIFF OPPOSITION FROM THE PUBLIC.
ALL INFORMED PEOPLE WERE WELL AWARE THAT A COUNTRY WITH SUCH A CULTURAL DIVERSITY WAS AN UNTOUCHABLE (DON'T MEDDLE) PROBLEM; AND ANY ATTEMPT TO DE-STABILIZE SADDAM (TOTALITARIAN RULE) WOULD ONLY LEAD TO MAYHEM AND CIVIL WAR. TACKLING THIS "IRAQ ISSUE" WAS LIKE TRYING TO WRESTLE WITH A LEPER.

NOW THAT THE DAMAGE HAS BEEN DONE. CAN YOU PUT HUMPTY DUMPTY TOGETHER AGAIN?
SADDAM HUSSEIN WAS TO IRAQ, WHAT MARSHALL TITO WAS TO YUGOSLAVIA, A PREFERRED EVIL.
THE GLUE THAT BOUND THE DISPARATE PIECES.

BACK IN AMERICA, THE NEWS OF THE SIGNING (BY BUSH) OF THE MILITARY COMMISIONS ACT (HR 6616), HAS MET RESISTANCE AND CRITICISM. THE PUBLIC IS BEING TOLD ONLY HALF THE RAMIFICATIONS OF THIS DRACONIAN LAW. YET, THOSE THAT READ BETWEEN THE LINES (3 R'S COME IN HANDY, YOU SEE CHILDREN) CAN SEE THE THREATS TO THE FREEDOMS INHERENT IN OUR DEMOCRACY.
HABEAS CORPUS: A WRIT REQUIRING A PERSON TO BE BROUGHT BEFORE A JUDGE OR COURT, ESP. FOR INVESTIGATION OF A RESTRAINT OF THE PERSON'S LIBERTY, USED AS A PROTECTION AGAINST ILLEGAL IMPRISONMENT.1

THESE ARE ONLY A FEW OF THE CONCERNS OF THE CITIZENRY AT PRESENT. ALSO, QUITE SERIOUS IS THE TERM "ENEMY COMBATANT". AN EUPHEMISM THAT CAN, AND MAY APPLY TO ANYONE THAT OPPOSES THE GOVERNMENT'S OBJECTIVES. OTHER WORRIES ARE THE CATEGORY OF "CITIZEN"; WHICH WILL PROBABLY NOW TAKE ON A BATTLE OF SEMANTICS. AS IN: WHAT AND WHO IS A CITIZEN? AND WHEN CAN THAT STATUS BE RESCINDED? IF YOU ARE NOT A CITIZEN, BUT AN ENEMY COMBATANT YOU CAN BE HELD INCOMMUNICADO (WITH NO LAWYER, NO PHONE CALL, NO SPEEDY TRIAL, ETC.) INDEFINITELY UNTIL YOU ARE TRIED BY A COURT MARTIAL. WHICH IS IRONIC, SINCE THOSE COURTS ARE INTENDED FOR SOLDIERS, NOT CIVILIANS. ONE CAN SEE THE ANALOGY TO NAZI GERMANY THAT SOME COMPARE THESE MEASURES TO.

BACK TO THE QUAGMIRE THAT OUR COUNTRY HAS BECOME. WHERE AN APPARENT PENCHANT
FOR CHANGING THE CHECKS AND BALANCES OF OUR GOVERNMENT HAS OVERTAKEN THE GUARDIANS OF THE CONSTITUTION; WE PRAY FOR PEACE.

TIME TO WAKE UP AMERICA

Time to wake up America the eyes of the world are upon you. Old world entities have envied you since your foundation. They envied your freedoms, your benevolence, and your prosperity. Now finally, they've have gotten their agents to transform your republican ideals into old world type Oligarchy.
Protestant America with her free enterprise (laissez faire), and God given rights has recently been compromised by the current regime and the powers of the President. There is no end in sight to the ambitions of this Administration; For "Power corrupts absolutely". Where will it end in "concentration camps", toll plazas on turnpikes transformed into check points, citizen ID cards, and permission to travel to and fro?
It's almost too late; But, not late enough that you can't speak up like someone did today!

OLBERMANN'S PATRIOT ACT

Mr. Olbermann conducted a true "Patriot Act" when he called the latest losses to our human rights what they are, a beginning of the end of America. It's baffling how no one else in the media has had the intestinal fortitude to call these assaults on our Constitution by their rightful name: aggressions.
When a free nation regresses into medieval times it's time for all the citizens to take note. When someone of prominence speaks up in opposition to the changes, it's a sign to the populace that not everyone HAS CHICKENED-OUT. Since the Congress and the Supreme Court is silent on the drastic changes that Mr. Bush has asked, and received since the infamous day of September 11, 2001; Someone had to break that wall of silence that has pervaded in our midst. Who in spite of the consequences would speak-out in opposition to this "have it your way Mr. President" philosophy that exists nowadays.
Thank you Mr. Olbermann for your bravado. Thanks for confirming to the average (John/Jane Doe) American , that it isn't only them that smell a rat in high places. When Orwellian laws are passed to ensure peace and security;
It makes you wonder what is worse the threat of impending danger, or the havoc and suspicion required to secure peace? When we place these on the balance of consequential thinking we see that the cure is worse than the dis-ease. While promising peace the Prez has eroded the Constitution, piece by piece.
Mr. Olberman you spoke for the New "silent majority". Not the majority that is worried about lame "hot button" issues which divide this nation between red and blue states; But the majority that realizes that no president can usurp the Constitution and its precept without answering to the people. Ours is a nation of laws made for men (and women); Not vice versa.
You really showed your courage like a real "free" man. Thanks for standing in the breach.
