No replies to this one? For real? O.o

Can it really pass realistically speaking? Or is the point just to try and set some kindof public mood?

I think that's what people would have said about a lot of the fucked up shit that's passed in the last 6 years.

Didnt most of those acts go through in late night emergency meetings? Same advantage won't be given to this act.

I mean any and all American's who could be arbitrarily deemed as an "enemy combatant" (at the whim of our President.)

It's both sad and amazing that so many of us have chosen to fight for our freedoms (all over again) while still living in the "Land of the Free, Home of the Brave" while so many other's still seem to be caught up in their passively consumptive, grossly materialistic stupors.



And while she might only be a 7th grade teacher, I personally think that Lorna Dils may have been on to something when she wrote THIS.

its always amusing seeing such unoriginal rhetoric coming from someone that's a member of a music internet forum! the arrogance and conceit mixed with hypocrisy is truly astounding.
