For those that don't know, don't care, don't pay attention, don't whatever, the US Sentate has voted in legislation eliminating habeas corpus for "enemy combatants", as defined by the US Administration, and condoning torture, flying in the face of the Geneva Convention. Lord knows, I'm probably an "enemy combatant" for this blog.
If I was living in the United States now (And this is one of many reasons I happily live in New Zealand now), I would be very close to picking up a gun. Maybe I could manage to wait till the elections in November, or even see what happens in 2008. The difference in many cases between a freedom fighter and a terrorist is the label given by those in power who are being attacked by said "terrorists". By your definition of the word, George Walker Bush, you corrupt, power hungry, moronic son of a bitch, George Washington was a terrorist.
