Serving the dictator


Bush once said, "If this was a dictatorship, it'd be a heckuva lot easier--so long as I'm the dictator."

It looks like he’s getting his way. There are all those laws he signs, for example, and then claims they don’t apply to him,

And then today, we have this: AP reports that the White House is nearing an agreement with Congress on legislation that would write his warrantless spying program into law.

You know, the warrantless spying program that breaks the law that requires the government to get approval from a secretive federal court before Americans can be monitored?

So, if you break the law, your servants in Congress will just create a new law and make it legal.

You can’t beat that.
