Something that really bothers me......
I almost know for a fact that 9/11 was an inside job, from being in the airline industry and hours of reading in here as well as other sources. Recently, Bush admitted to wiretaping calls and email to hear of terrorists activity. In my opinion on 9/11, Bush MIHOP. So why would he need to wiretap citizens for terrorists when he was part of it? Could he be listening to citizens phone calls to find those citizens opposing the goverment? Or something of that nature? I'm fairly young so maybe I'm missing this by a mile, but the whole thing just doesn't ring true, especially Bush admitting he commited anything that might be illegal. What's up anyway?

1. He doesn't need to
wiretap for terrorists. (or other tooth fairies)

He needs to be able to wiretap you!

2. I think it is more like he wants people to feel like they might
be under surveillance, in order to control their behavior. Wouldn't you act differently if you thought you were being watched all the time? That is the effect it has on most people, I think.

3. Dissent is now crimethought.
On the other hand, it's doubleplusgood that choco-rations are on the rise again. Right?
