I don't normally do this....
So, the Military Commission Act was passed.
If you are an American, please do your part to research the repeal of habeas corpus for "unlawful combatants" and decide if you think it is a threat to our fundamental rights of freedom.
I think it is. Do a google news search and decide for yourself.
Meanwhile, to emphasize my biased opinion, look at this.

So much for your "No political analysis" rule eh? Listen, I'm not American, but I have been watching this new development with interest as well. It just sickens me how the media and citizens of America will sit idly by while their rights and freedoms are being stolen from right under their noses. All the while gripping an AK or Mack-10 lamenting on about how the they have the right to bare arms or smoke in restaurants. I just don't get people sometimes. It's like Pink says in her song Stupid Girls, "Where have all the smart people gone?' Bush flubs a one-syallable word on television and it's all anyone talks about, but the government steals freedoms and what do people do? Shrug their shoulders and tune into see what idiot is trying to become the lead singer of Supernova. How's that for a rant? Anyway, I am upset that I have to really watch myself while on roadtrips to the States from now on. I don't want to get my butt thrown in the clink for absolutely no good reason.
RIck, your words couldn't ring more true.
Unfortunately, you are the only one to post to this, and of course, you're Canadian.
Americans-where are you and why aren't you as upset as we are?
