State of the Union

So, Dictator Bush made his speech last night. It made me ill listening to it. All the outright lies and misdirection. I wonder how many of my fellow Americans bought what he said about heath care reform, about current envornmental policies, about illegal wiretaps, about the War for Oil, about “No Child Left Behind” … and so many other things.

What I found the most troublesome is that Dictator Bush again used the tragedy of 9/11 to justify his totalarian state and illegal activities.

It is said that prior to the attacks of September the 11th, our government failed to connect the dots of the conspiracy. We now know that two of the hijackers in the United States placed telephone calls to al Qaeda operatives overseas. But we did not know about their plans until it was too late. So to prevent another attack — based on authority given to me by the Constitution and by statute — I have authorized a terrorist surveillance program to aggressively pursue the international communications of suspected al Qaeda operatives and affiliates to and from America.

So, let’s just forget that it was Dictator Bush who sat in that classroom in Florida listening to children read while the events of 9/11 unfolded.

“It is said … our government failed.”

Indeed, Dictator Bush. Our government failed on that day and is continuing to fail as you and your buddies line their pockets with money, rape the environment, send soldiers to their deaths so you can proclaim “Democracy for All” all while letting middle and lower income Americans slip further and further behind.

Yes. “The state of our Union is strong.”

    The 1978 law that requires a president to obtain warrants for domestic spying in wartime, noting especially that the law says it is “the exclusive means by which electronic surveillance … may be conducted.” –Yet, Bush claims he has the “legal authority” to do what he did.

    Legal scholars disagree. “It is a crime to engage in domestic surveillance without a warrant. It’s an express provision in a federal law,” Mr. Turley said. “The White House is … not disagreeing with that provision, they’re just saying that [Mr. Bush] trumps it with some inherent authority.” AkA, the Divine Right of Kings.
