There may be worse things than being a Nazi.

The title I owe to MDM.

The sentiment I owe to the Executive branch of the United States of America; the rubber-stamp, right-wing, rights hating, do anything (or anyone) to maintain power Republican Party; and the spineless Democrats in Congress that maybe, just maybe, could have actually stopped this from happening.

The rage I now feel I owe to a nation which, as Jonathan Turley, a professor of law at George Washington University, so pointedly stated, "collectively yawned" in response to the Military Commissions Act of 2006 (a.k.a. Bill Number S.3930 of the 109th Congress).

Today, already a day after the bill's signing, I only provide a link to the Library of Congress access point for S.3930, and to the GPO's .pdf version of the same. I do so with the intent of referring back to it once in a relatively more reasoned state of mind. No one reads this blog, and that's probably for the best, but at least it will serve as something of a record of this date and these thoughts. I honestly can't say much more without fear of losing what little patience I have left. Suffice it to say, I just needed to say something.

I will comment later. Enjoy the bedtime read.
