Nice post Frederick: along those lines a post from RB:

The U.S.-led effort to track money belonging to terrorist groups has been hobbled by bureaucratic infighting and a growing understanding by investigators that most of al Qaeda's money is not in banks but in untraceable commodities, including gold and diamonds, according to U.S. and international officials.

The transfer of al Qaeda's assets, the scale of which is only now becoming clear, has left much of the organization's financial network untouched by the Bush administration's campaign to freeze terrorist funds around the globe.

Yet more of our rights and privacy taken in the name of the war on terror, turn out to be futile and ineffectual against "them" but work fine against us...the American people.

You're ok, FS, I don't care what anybody sez ...

What you are espousing with your satire, is anti-fascism

Good one Fred...

USA Homeland Security Citizenship Protocol....

I AM A CITIZEN....

....of the Federal Private Corporate United States of America.

I am an automaton. I do only what I am told to do. I only see what others tell me to see. Black is white and white is black. I eat my Wheaties in the morning. I always thank the person who gives me less than half of what was promised and I protect the sanctity of misinformation spoken as pearls by my betters.

I support causes and countries that want to rob me of my dignity and put my family in jeopardy and I curtsy as they pass by and glance at me. I am honored as they reluctantly mix with us commoners as they drive by in their shiny new limos as we have only our shoes and old bicycles to use.

But even they are at risk for they are needed in the war effort to protect our freedoms and to be used to make machines that print identity cards that we are privileged to pay for.

Its all in the benefit to us all.

I support police brutality as it is always the citizens who are wrong to even think of opposing properly vetted law enforcement. I think no sinful thoughts and no matter what the civil authorities say they are right because they know far more than I.

I must sacrifice my children for the good of large corporate interests and the bankers. It is all my duty and privilege to be at the disposal of the state.

Signed,

A Federal Corporate Citizen
of the United States of America
