The Military Commisiona Act of 2006 which has recently been passed by congress officially overthrows the U.S. Constitution and gives President Bush dictatorial power. Under this law the government can name anyone including a U.S. Citizen as an enemy combatant, revoke they’re citizenship, and then indefinitely detain them in a military prison, secretly torture them, secretly try them in a kangaroo court, and then secretly execute them. Not necessarily in that order.

If you don’t believe me why don’t you go read the bill yourself. You can read it on the Library of Congress website by clicking here (http://thomas.loc.gov/). The House version is H R 6166 and the senate version is S 3930

Here are some news articles and video clips about this bill that will confirm that I’m telling you the truth

Perhaps, but still exceedingly relevant. Scary, scary stuff, and once again makes me thankful that I do not (yet) live in a country with such malign powers in place.

No, it was signed on Oct. 17th, 2006 so its about a week old. I posted a thread on it right before the boards were hacked but the thread was lost in the back-up. The law is very frightening. Basically, if a government court declares you as an enemy combatant (which they can do for nearly any reason, they just have to agree on it) you have no right to habeas corpus.

Actually, it's not a government court that designates "enemy combatants". It's whomever is the president.
