brilliant abcdx, why didn't i think of that.. hmm, maybe something
Senator Fiengold said:
" This is extremely broad, and key terms go undefined."

he goes on to say: "And by including hostilities not only against the United States but also against its allies, the bill allows the U.S. to hold and try by military commission individuals who have never engaged, directly or indirectly, in any action against the United States.
Not only that, but the bill would also define as an unlawful enemy combatant subject to trial by military commission, anyone who "has been determined to be an unlawful enemy combatant by a Combatant Status Review Tribunal or another competent tribunal established under the authority of the President or the Secretary of Defense." This essentially grants a blank check to the executive branch to decide entirely on its own who can be tried by military commission."

ah, but congress said they could do that so it must be ok, civil, democratic and all that. no worries, GW, Cheney and Rove are honorable truthful folks.
anyway, there's no fricken woods deep enough to run to even if i wanted to run anywhere.
