Hi Dave, You're right about the Big Brother government being created to spy on all of us. But you're wrong about the source. The Bush people have been in Washington for decades working on this stuff in the shadows, and would still be there with a Democratic president. The Democratic opposition hasn't been strong enough, and the GOPs love the all-powerful central government, even tho' they say the opposite.

This isn't a "Clinton did it!" issue. Bush's group includes Poindexter, the major domo of "Demolition Man"/"Brazil" type future infowars against citizens, and Sununu, a PhD computer scientist who can rig elections (see the book "VOTESCAM"). You can't escape a clear, bright line between Nixon's recruiting of Rumsfeld, Cheney, Bush senior et al, the people who then inhabited Reagan's term, and who are once again infecting our government. These are the arrogant secretive technicians who believe it's just fine to set up citizen spying, and maintain government secrecy.
I don't want to exaggerate, but remember that one aspect of true fascism (Mouselini's state-centric government) is when the state awards itself powers that it then denies to the citizens. It's an easy conclusion when you want the kind of state power this Brzezinski crowd is after.
Information is the key power in this Information Age. It dictates ownership - whoever owns and controls information owns and controls the country.

Those are the utopian ideas motivating this group of ideologues. Everything done trends towards creating an all-powerful central government, and justifications are secondary. If they had answered questions and not acted suspiciously by concealing all 9/11 information and even the past 20 years presidential papers, the suspicions raised by groups like unansweredquestions.org and whatreallyhappened.com would not have arisen.

As a result, we have an odd situation where the president, vice-president and prior president Bush must, from now on refuse to hold any unscripted news conferences, without the ability to sanitize the results before airtime. The problem is if they are asked any of the unanswered questions, they'll have to duck, and it will be a p.r. problem, then a legal problem, then a political problem, then a domestic military problem.

As far as Clinton, dozens of the George Tenet, Singlaub, Poindexter crew have been busy for the decades. Since Clinton didn't remove Tenet, he's to be criticized also.

It's not George Bush pushing us that way; it's people with utopian ideas about how things ought to be. We don't need all this security and infringement on our freedoms. We need to have terrorists and enemies eliminated post haste. George Bush is working on that and reversing some of the errors made by Clinton.

If you have any doubts what the goal of Bush & Co. is, read Brzezinski's "The Grand Chessboard". This details the current attitude that the US must be in control of the world (literally) for the good of mankind. As appealing as that idea might be at first to some Americans, the plan is absolute military control not only of our defenses, but over the internal affairs of every other country. It's a fascinating book.

Ethics and morals have no place in the Brzezinski view, it's pure Machiavelli, and leads to the kind of criminal insider government we have now, where the ends justifies the means to get there, and the president arrogantly says to the public on 60 Minutes last week, "I don't have to answer to anybody". He's dead wrong.
