What Is Cheney & Hastert Hiding? WHOA

[The Cleaner]

Since it didn't muster a vote in Congress, Patriot Act 2 legislation is quitely being enacted piecemeal. Case in point, Bush's recent announcement that he was reversing domestic wiretapping and authorizing a new court to review warrants (in reality the new court will oversee not individual warrants but groups, so in effect it EXPANDED the wiretapping program).

But I wonder...what do cheney & Hastert know? What are they hiding regarding the transformation of America into a new police state?

NOTE: I realize Patriot Act 2 is "old news" but cheney's and hastert's involvement is what I'm clarifying here.

Even after the draconian measures of the "Patriot Act," George W. Bush and company apparently think Americans are too free and that we cannot be trusted to know what further infringements on our freedom are being planned.

The Justice Department's plans for a "Domestic Security Enhancement Act of 2003" were revealed only through a Department insider leaking the document to the watchdog group Center for Public Integrity. Dick Cheney and House Speaker Dennis Hastert are the only recognizable elected or quasi-elected officials documented as having obtained the document, which is marked "Confidential: Not for Distribution Draft Jan. 9, 2003."
