Warrantless arbitrary wiretapping wasn't enough for George W. Bush. Now he wants to read your mail, too -- but without the hassle of obtaining the necessary court warrant as required by law. [Read story.]
You see, Bush believes that he is above the law. He can just issue a signing statement, and then the laws of mortal men no longer apply to him. He can tap your phone; he can read your mail; and he can decide for no reason that you're an "enemy combatant" and send you off to Gitmo to be tortured with no legal recourse. The sky's the limit.
And this is the so-called leader of the "free" world. Doesn't that leave you feeling all warm and fuzzy and proud to be an American?
