Obama is without question, unequivocally, without a doubt, Worse Than Bush.
Elections no longer matter. The corporate rulers always win. Torture is now big biz.

You got that right!

This 6 to 5 appeals court decision that demolishes any quaint notions of civil liberties in Amerikkka is typical of the police-state mentality of the ruling elite. The 9th circuit court, once considered to be a left-leaning bastion in an increasingly reactionary Amerikkkan judical system, clearly has devolved into the Kafkaesque logic that plagues this nation's court system.
As another commondreams poster said on another thread recently, if police arrest any of us, we can have no expectation of any civil liberty protections that were once common under the US Constitution. Since the government has to follow no laws, then We the People should follow no laws.
War criminals rule! All others - go fuck yourselves. God Bless Amerikka!

In the TV Series ROOTS Chuck Conners as Tom Moore, the owner of a handful of slaves has returned home ahead of Chicken George after losing everything he owns.
He talks to his wife about how he plans to raise the money he owes by selling his slaves. When his wife reminds him that he promised Chicken George, his half white illegitimate son, his freedom when he returns home Tom says "When he comes back here he won't be coming back white; he is still going to be black. And what's a nigger to do?"
I can hear the ruling class laughing over their cigars and brandy: "We own the courts, both houses of congress, the president, and damned near all the money. Private citizens can point to the bill of rights but we own the police too. So what's one of the little people to do"?
Rendition doesn't remain unchecked--Obummer is carrying on the Bush/Cheney tradition.
