Run Hillary in 2008. Please. PLEASE. You promise?

I thought you were a conservative? Don't conservatives worry about TOO much government intrusion in their lives? If Bush decides he wants DNA, fingerprints, voice recognition and eye recognition from EVERYBODY in your town would you just go along with it and not want ANY newspaper to mention it??
How exactly does the gov't pretend that is classified? Particularly after it starts?
THAT is a violation of several parts of the Bill of Rights. The gov't can play whatever games it wanted. THAT would be headed for the courts, the gov't would lose, and would be ordered to destroy any records it had gathered before the order- -if it had gathered any.

There's something you and your buddies like to lose track of: this is a republican democracy. It will still be one in Feb 2009 after Bush has left office like a good President should and turned the WH over to his successor, Democrat, Republican, or Martian.

BREAK: CNBC just said the leftist candidate for President, Obrador, in Mexico will go to the courts for resolution. Shades of 2000!

Isn't there a SLIPPERY SLOPE on this stuff, or are you willing to just let the government shut down every newspaper that doesn't suit their objectives?
I would suggest you study some history before spouting off. That is EXACTLY what President Lincoln did during the American Civil War. Is that when we became a dictatorship?

If it's the latter, then I guess newspapers should be forced to run everything they print by the "official" government sensors so we can get TRUE security by giving up any last vestige of personal freedom. It might be best if we all allowed chips to be implanted so the government could ENSURE our safety.
And "666" on the forehead. Don't forget "666".

Back to CNBC: Bush just said one of the NK missiles that failed was headed for CANADA! That boy really likes brinksmanship.
