2. Yep, and since the early discussion on Patriot Act 1, I have foreseen US citizens
being tried in kangaroo courts, or not tried, but just appointed as CONVICTED and sent to work in Iraq for the oil industry.

This dark dream has plagued me and seems more likely as the junta proclaims power to say who is a traitor, confiscate their (and their FAMILY'S) assets and send them where ever they want to.

3. And our new "War Czar"
thinks that it might not be a bad idea right here at home.

4. Ever since cousin Bremmer dismantled the army they had,...Bush has tried to,...
,...draw desperates into supporting the occupiers.

The neo-corporacrats haven't had much success, needless to say.

They never will. BUT, they'll make fortunes trying!!!! Isn't that comforting.

5. "Lifetime Reserve Service" - HOLY FUCKING SHIT!
No social security needed in Iraq as there will be no men left of any considerable age...they will all die fighting in Iran, Syria, Turkey.
