"Communism" "Naziism" "Totolenarianism" (I cannot spell, by the way), they are all the same. Oligarchy of some sort, at the expense of everyone else.

John Ashcroft is the most antidemocratic Attourney General in my lifetime, I do believe he even beats Kliendienst, who arrested half the Government workers in DC one day because they were "protesters". He, at least, didn't say they weren't citizens or not covered by Constitutional guarentees because someone made up some other word to describe them.

Very scary, Bush and Ashcroft. Go to jail at the whim of some government bureaucrat? Forever, no lawyer, no communication with anyone, tried by a secret court you don't even get to identify?

Doesn't matter what the excuse is, the behavior is absolutely prohibited by the Constitution, and the Supreme Court will eventually rule, probably unanimously, that it is in fact prohibited, but that will probably be after Bush leaves office. Wouldn't want to step on the hand the feeds you, after all......
