Yes, in the Permanent War on Some Dictators, we need permanent police
state measures.
Bush faces a tough decision: roll east, or roll west.
Since Syria is more decrepit in its armaments, as Iraq was, it will be
the likely target. But first we need to prepare by floating rumors that
Saddam's missing "WMD" (not found by the U.N., not found by the
swarming soldiers) must have been spirited out to Axis of Evil Founding
Member Syria.
The Permanent War helps the defense contractors, helps the Republicans,
and helps Israel.
What more can we ask? (Don't answer this unless you've checked with the
text of the Homeland Security Act and PATRIOT Act to see if your
answers make you an "illegal combatant.")
