Protect your civil rights

I know I said I wouldn’t be posting, but i can’t resist this one. via This Modern World

This little city (pop.: 16,000) has become the first in the nation to pass an ordinance that outlaws voluntary compliance with the Patriot Act.

“I call this a nonviolent, preemptive attack,” said David Meserve, the freshman City Council member who drafted the ordinance with the help of the Arcata city attorney, city manager and police chief.

Story.

This is the kind of action that allows me to continue to hold out hope for America. I love the people of America, but man do I despise the regime currently in power. America, don’t be fooled by Bush’s claims at christianity. Just because he is a christian doesn’t mean he has all or even very many of the right ideas for running the country. Enough thinking that you have to support everything the “President” does or says because your brother or sister or cousin is currently risking their life in the Middle East. Realize that hiding all of his actions behind the facade of saving America from 9/11 type events should be offensive. Don’t let this administration play the entire country for fools. Take a few minutes to research what they have done and are doing on a source other than CNN or Fox and see if you aren’t just a bit concerned. For one thing (related to this story) don’t let them turn it into “1985” by 2005. One last thing, please please please use the ballot in numbers that are uncheatable to oust this Thief in chief in the next election.

thank you for reading

    Heh. I beat you to the punch on this particular story by about five months, UltraBob. wink

    But, yeah, I agree with you wholeheartedly. Bush is the worst president in our nation’s history, but I don’t think the general public will realize that until long after he is out of office--if ever. His use of war as a political tool is disgusting.

    Bush is, as our last legitimate president said not long ago, “inimical to everything [our] country stands for.”

    All the links worked for me.  The washington post one seems to require a small survey to get into.  What do you mean?
