Bush signs bill on terror prosecution
"It is a rare occasion when a president can sign a bill he knows will save American lives," Bush said. "I have that privilege this morning."
Here's what one anti-american / blame-america-first-er said about the bill:
"The president can now, with the approval of Congress, indefinitely hold people without charge, take away protections against horrific abuse, put people on trial based on hearsay evidence, authorize trials that can sentence people to death based on testimony literally beaten out of witnesses, and slam shut the courthouse door for habeas petitions," said ACLU Executive Director Anthony D. Romero. [ Habeas Corpus ]
You're either with us or against us, Mr. ACLU, and I'd be a real crime to be against us. Everyone who loves freedom please take one step forward -- not so fast, ACLU.
We finally just got the tools to conduct the law enforcement to get the evil-do-ers, and we're all in favor of it so let's get these terrorists in other countries and the people/citizens who lurk & hate freedom in the USA! Now we can hold them secretly & indefinately without trial, convict & execute them in secret trial without proof just based on what some neighbor or really anyone said about them, and refuse to even tell them why they are being held. That ought to separate the real americans from the fake americans.
