EXCLUSIVE: Justice Department Memo Reveals Legal Case For Drone Strikes On Americans - MSNBC

[woo me with science]

134. +1 It makes you ill, doesn't it, thinking about where this is leading.

That's a very good question about blame.

We are propagandized to blame the "terrorists" and the other party.

Who knows how long the one percent will be able to pull that off. I make myself sick sometimes thinking about the posts we used to write, in which we talked about where the line in the sand might be, that would get people to stand up and say "no more." So many of the things that we used to say as hyperbole, to talk about how bad things might get.....are now considered normal.

We used to talk in jest about the possibility that our phone calls and emails would be surveilled by the government.

We used to talk in jest about how we would have drones in our skies, or how it would be legal for the government to "disappear" people.

Well, here we are, our Constitution now rendered optional for our rulers, in ever-expanding ways.

And *still* circling the wagons.

Sometimes reading the news is too much to bear.
