And I know some of that was because of being under Chen err Bush for 8 years but I see startling things now with Obama.

DHS is setting up spy grids and groping people at airports, soon to be elsewhere as well.. inching us closer towards either a police state or a soft police state. They are infiltrating every part of our lives. "See something, say something" is incredibly Orwellian. They are getting us accustomed to living like this. They will be getting us accustomed to military on the streets with checkpoints as well.

I see America divided just as bad as under Bush. This is a good thing for the power brokers and bankers, with Americans who actually agree on a lot, being made to go against eachother on petty issues.

I see bankers and industry insiders taking up MORE of the Obama government than the Bush government, I didn't think it was possible.


Gitmo open, patriot act again passed, FISA, it goes on and on.

The tyranny coming to us won't be unwanted, it will be consented to by the majority. Because if we don't accept tyranny, the terrorists win.
