the land of the free. free not more.
The Land of the Free bringing Freedom to the Rest of the World ! Think again. The mythcal "land of the free" is no longer Free. It has just signed away the most basic rights of even its own citizens.All in the name of Defense. Defense from its own terrorising,Terrorist creations - offshoots of its Al CIAdah.
"The demise of the Feinstein-Lee proposal doesn't necessarily mean that Americans suspected of terrorism in the US can be locked up forever without a trial. But it ensures that the next time a president tries to lock up an American citizen without trial -- as President George W. Bush previously tried -- it will be left up to the courts to decide whether or not it's legal."
Don't let the dearth of attention fool you -- this is a scandal. Congress has turned its back on safeguarding a core Constitutional protection and a centuries old requirement of Western justice.
Rage, rage against the dying of the 5th.
