Our own CyberKen could be considered a terrorist of sorts. He's stated he thinks the "Domestic Enemy" should be rounded up and imprisoned, perhaps put to death. Do the rest of you wingnuts agree with the NeoNaziCon?

Isn't it your ilk that complained because we WEREN'T on alert on 911? Do you work at appearing stupid or does it come naturally?

The Supreme Court has never permitted preventive detention without a finding of dangerousness or flight risk, but, that would never stop John Ashcroft from trampling the US Constitution. This is one of many many examples of Aschcroft's Constitutional violations. On April 23, 2003 the Justice Department released an Aschroft decision overturning rulings by an immigration judge and the Bureau of Immigration Appeals regarding a 20-year-old Haitian immigrant who had come ashore in Florida the previous October seeking asylum. Aschroft ruled that asylum seekers could be locked up indefinitely, regardless of the decisions of immigration judges, because releasing them could spur further mass migration attempts from Haiti that would cause "strains on national security and homeland security resources." Aschroft also justified perpetually incarcerating Haitian asylum seekers because of an increased number of Pakistanis, Palestinians, and other foreign nationals "using Haiti as a staging point for attempted migration to the united States. This increases the national security interest in curbing use of this migration route." 23 I&N Dec. 572 (A.G. 2003) Interim Decision #3488. (April 17,2003) Aschroft's assertion that Palestinians were trying to sneak into the United States via Haiti stunned other federal experts. State Department's Consular Service spokesman Stuart Patt commented: "We all are scratching our heads. We are asking each other, Where did they get that?" Jaqueline Charles, "Diplomats Puzzled by Claim Migrants Use Haiti to Enter U.S.," Miami Herald, April 25, 2003. "The idea of Islamic militants trying to infiltrate a boatload of Creole-speaking refugees is so ludicrous that even Aschroft knows better.... No matter how much plastic surgery Osama bin Laden has, he will never in a million years blend in on the streets of downtown Port-au-Prince." Carl Hiaasen, "A Homeland Security Charade," Miami Herald, May 11, 2003. For Christmas I'm giving the University and Public libraries in my town copies of some of my favorite books. I was pleased that when I checked their online catalogs they had most of them but they were checked out with holds on them. It appears that people are seeking answers to the many questions raised by the obviously illegal actions of Bush and Aschroft. I hope with a few extra copies they can get them into the hands of those yearning for the truth. My gifts include: Terrorism and Tyranny: Trampling Freedom, Justice and Peace to Rid the World of Evil by James Bovard Sleeping with the Devil: How Washington Sold Our Soul for Saudi Crude by Robert Baer Hatred's Kingdom: How Saudi Arabia Supports the New Global Terrorism by Dore Gold The Best Democracy Money Can Buy: The Truth About Corporate Cons, Globalization and High-Finance Fraudsters by Greg Palast The Lies of George W. Bush: Mastering the Politics of Deception by David Corn bestwebbuys.com Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all, even wingnuts
