By getting to ignore habeus corpus and having the ability to declare any person, including US citizens, an "enemy combatant" at will, George W has executive power that George III did not have.

Just imagine! Hundreds of years of this noble experiment of self-government have been subverted by one handful of fanatics with box-cutters and another handful of fanatics with Diebold machines! The good things in this world are truly fragile.

I get the eye twitch when I'm tired and/or stressed.
bon bon is a Cylon - pass it on
